Is Slight Constipation And Pale Stools Normal In A Child?

Hi, my 14th month daughter has been slightly constipated lately and really seems to struggle going and when she does the easiest way of describing them is that they look like nuggets! They are also very pale sort of yellow/beige is this normal? She s had green poo for ages and I ve started to give her more cow s milk and none of her formula milk, is this what could have affected her stools? Thanks

Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic. I think your kid is having habitual constipation. I have certain questions and suggestions for you.
Questions:
1. Did your kid pass motion or meconium on day one of life?
2. Since how long is the kid constipated?
3. Does the kid have any bleeding along with hard stools?
4. How much milk does the kid consume per day?
5. Does the kid eat fruits and vegetables (fibre diet) appropriately?
