Some babies have constipation problems, when they poop they start crying, this is quite common but not usually serious. If constipation has appeared for a few days and persists, we must ask ourselves if it has to do with any change in your diet.
What is always suspected is cow's milk or failing the introduction of yogurts in your diet, we must make sure if the introduction of these foods coincides with the constipation that suffers, a test would be to suppress for a few days these food to make sure exactly. But not all children react equally to food, as a rule yogurt helps prevent constipation but there are cases in which it is not.
If, on the contrary, no change in diet is suspected, a series of highly recommended measures can be taken so that the child does not suffer from it. A infant diet That is rich in fiber, drink plenty of water ... are some solutions, although sometimes it is necessary to resort to glycerin suppositories, but only as a last resort and very sporadically. The issue of the diet rich in fiber or the increase in water consumption is only if the child accepts it willingly, so you have to convince him that if he eats and drinks as we say, it will not hurt when pooping . Bread or whole wheat crackers are foods that contain fiber and are more accepted than legumes. The latter have a greater effect since they have a greater amount of fiber than vegetables or fruit.
Remember that it is much better a fruit eaten bites than in juice, and if you can eat with skin, more fiber will provide. A fruit that is highly recommended for constipation is kiwis.
To all this we must add that it is very important that we always inform the child clearly explaining and with words that he understands, the need to eat certain foods so that he does not suffer any pain when he poops, such as “You have to eat this so that Don't make your ass pupa. ” It will be small but it is important to explain and remind you when we provide you with some type of food to avoid constipation.
