My baby is constipated from last 3-4 days. She is passing hard and dry stools a lot of times in the day but verry little. I have not changed anythin in her diet she was doin avsolutley fine all these days and is suddenly contipated. I give her ..fruits ..boiled vegetables. I am not giving her banana or rice as i heard that causes constipation. Plzz give me some home remedy for this. I have heard about prune but i dont find gerber prune purree out here i am in dubai. What else can i do..? I used glyserine suppository once i hate doin this and it didntn really work she passed hard stools. Plzz help me. Mel replied. Aks is right. You need to mention your daughters age.

And I hope you are not giving the suppository without the recommendation of your doc.

You may be giving her fruits, but are you giving her the right fruits. For constipation, the best fruits are bananas (they DO NOT cause constipation), oranges, mosambi. Give her roti. And yes, let her drink water often. Keep a glass accessible. Babies and toddlers feel thirsty too, but may not be able to communicate that. So, keep a sippy cup or straw glass of water within her reach, which she can pick up and drink while playing or running around.

You can also give her orange or mosambi juice mixed with sugar. Have you started potty training her ? Some kids develop constipation when potty training starts. aks replied. Hey Aafreen...U dint mention ur baby' s age...also what is her daily diet. I knwo u have sd u havent chnaged anyhting in her diet. Are u giving her enuf water? Try lukewarm water, papya, spinach soup, prunes.
Dont worry if the stools are hard and she is not crying while passing stools it mite not be that bad. But u can give her fibre rich diet and lots of water to get the stools back to normal. take care.
