Constipation to baby
My baby is 21 days old. He breastfeeds and I need to top up with formula. He almost daily passes stool but he tries hard for it almost whole day. I am informed that it is okay if baby does pass stool daily as far as he frequently passes urine. I am giving him 5 drops of colicaid daily at night but seems as if it does not help. He does not pass hard stool but he becomes sleepless and keeps on trying very hard for it till he doesn't successfully pass the stool. When he tries for it for hours he turns red due to pressure. Please guide me how I can help my baby with normal bowl moment.

Dear parents,
