@Dr. Priyanka Patel My child is 6 months and 1 week old. He is teething. He cries while feeding and sometimes while sleeping. I guess is its due to teething. How can I reduce his gum pain? Additionally from the onset of weaning, he is experiencing constipation and I have to use glycerine suppository. Is there someway to prevent constipation?
Shilpa baby got a very small stomach and their digestive system is still developing, 2 or 3 meals is too much, he is not able to digest hence constipation. As I have mentioned breast milk or formula milk will be their main source of nutrition and it should never reduce till 1 year. Solids are just complimentary not the main food till 1 year. Hope you read the pointers which i shared. Both banana and and apple cause constipation.
