Thank you for your query
Your daughter is 3 years old. Her weight is normal for her age. So you need not worry
She’s having habitual constipation which is very common at her age
My suggestions
1. Reduce or stop cow’s milk
2. Increase fruits and vegetables — you can give fresh fruit juices or vegetable soups
3. Avoid biscuits, bread and maida foods
If the above measures do not work consult your Pediatrician
