My baby gets constantly constipated. Should I start meds or try the natural way of pressing her stomach and feeding her lots of water

Hi, constipation can be a serious problem for new-born babies. If any of the below given home remedies don't help your baby's constipation, you should take the baby to the doctor right away: Remedy1: Increase your baby’s fluid intake -- offer the breast or formula more frequently than you have been, up to every two hours. Remedy2: Try using a glycerine suppository. This is gently placed into your baby's anus and helps lubricate stool. Remedy3: Try massaging your baby’s tummy in a circular motion close to their navel. This may offer some comfort to your baby and help promote a bowel movement. Remedy4: Give your baby a warm bath. This may help him to relax enough to allow the passage of stool.
