Suggest Remedy For Hard Motion
Hi. My baby is going thru hard motion. Cries a lot. I have tried shifting from one brand of formula milk to the other...One doc suggested to move to soya milk due to her gas and constipation problem. Now the soya powder has solved the gas problem but not constipation. she is 5 months old

Well come to HCM
Thank for asking, it may be constipation but it is less likely but it seems to be the rectal lesion or infection that might be causing the pain at the time of defecation, or it could be colicky abdomen, and if it is the constipation then I would suggest to try sorbitol syrup, (Jut to relieve the constipation not due to any pathology) it is better try to avoid the top feeding, if possible drinking water would be worth trying instead of trying some medicines, and hope the given information helps.
