4 Month Old Constipated And Has Hard Stools. How Can I Help Her?

Constipation is mostly caused in babies that are bottle fed. Since your baby is four months old, I suppose you have started with the semi solids. This can also cause constipation. Whatever the case you can try the following tips:
- Massage your baby's tummy by starting at the belly button and moving outwards in circles in clockwise direction
- Move her legs in a cycling motion.
- Give her a bath and apply some vaseline outside the anus area.
- Give her extra fluids especially water.

Constipation in children is usually due to lack of fiber in diet. Your 4 months old child drinks milk and milk lacks fiber. Now at the age of 4 months, start giving him some solid food which contain fibers like mashed banana, different cereals etc.
