What to give my constipated baby?

Question

Hello, my baby is 6 months old. Since 1 week, he has small hard stools. He forces and cries a lot. I give him Biogaïa. I also gave him water and prunes but without success.

Good morning, ma'am, I encourage you to give her as much to drink as possible. You can also do some exercises when she is on her back: massage her belly in a clockwise direction, Knee bends (to make her knees touch her chest) Cycling movements. If needed, PEG-3350 powder (LAX-A-DAY and other brands) can be given according to weight in children 6 months and older. Your pharmacist will tell you the dose to give according to their weight. I hope I have been helpful to you and remain available if you have any further questions! Sincerely, Tom Samaha, pharmacist
