If your child is between the age of 4 months and a year and you suspect that your baby has issues with constipation, here are a few things you can try. It is normal for children to develop constipation at certain times in their lives, and the introduction of solid foods is one of those times. Just changing the type of food that they're eating can help. Or if your child has been eating solid foods for a long time, then just try introducing foods that are high in fiber. Juices can also help too. Juices such as pear, apple, prune juice are all going to be great. So give your baby a bottle of this (or a sippy cup) and hopefully this can help regulate things. You can do this on a regular basis every day until the stool becomes soft and the child stops having symptoms of constipation.

If your child continues to have issues after increasing fluid intake, changing diet, getting things that are high in fiber into their diet, then contact your baby's doctor who can then give you suggestions. Sometimes they recommend corn syrup, and they can tell you what dose would be appropriate. And there are other things such as laxatives, but those types of things should be done under the direction of a doctor.
