My son is having severe constipation issues for the last 3 months. Given his food habits are still the same what could be the reason behind this issue? Are there any recommended and natural foods to treat constipation in small kids?
5 Answers
prunes, prune juice, high fiber foods limit cheese, bananas, and peanut butter. Give more grapes apples with peeling and green vegetables
I would discuss this with your pediatrician who knows the specifics about your child such as his age, diet and medical conditions.
How old is your son?
FOUR MEASURES:
*2 oz of clear water twice daily
*Karo Syrup (1 small spoon to 4 oz of milk) twice daily
*Always give WARM milk to the infant
*Start cereals starting from the age of 4 months
Good luck,

Increase his fluid intake. Give him prune juice, increase fruits & vegetables in his diet.
