Hallo . Thank you for asking this question . 3 months is too early to start solid food . Better continue on milk till at least 4 -41/2 months . Then start watery things like rice water , vegetable water etc . As such you can use glycerine suppository for constipation . Hope I have answered your query . For further questions please contact .
