Pediatrician,  's  Response
hi ! Normally constipation is there in some kids when transition from mothers milk to formula feed is done . Try giving her plenty of liquids preferably juices. Rarely, infant constipation is caused by an underlying condition, such as Hirschsprung's disease, hypothyroidism or cystic fibrosis. If infant constipation persists despite dietary changes or is accompanied by other signs or symptoms — such as vomiting or irritability — contact your baby's doctor for further tests . take care.
