Suggest Remedy For Constipation
Hi My baby is 2.5 months old.I was Breast feeding him until now. I am infected with chicken pox now and stopped BF and isolated from him. Baby is given Nan Pro 1 ( 3 scoops with 150 ml water as suggested by Paed). It had been two days since he is given nan pro , he seems to have constipation and stool is bulkier and hard as compared to past when he was BF. Could you please suggest is it normal or should we need to change concentrations of the bottle feed to make him feel better? Thanks in advance.

As your baby is of 2.5 months. It should be given only breast feeding. For nutrition other than breast feed first u should consult a pediatrician as he is d person can prescribed a proper alternative of bf.
And if u have got cured from chickenpox then consult your family physician and do start bf.
As bf is d best meal for infant of less than 6 months..and only bf should be given during 6 months..
