Suggest Treatment To Pass Stools Without Help Of Dulcoflex
My baby is 2 months old and doesn t pass the stool. After 2nd day onwards he cries a lot and on consultation with pedidatrician suggested to use 1/4 of Dulcoflex for children. He will settle down after passing the stool. Is it advised to use it for longer period of time, we are using it from last 20 days for every 3 days ? He is currently under breast feeding and occassionally on bottle feed. Any suggestions to pass the stool normally without using Dulcoflex?
Hi....it is pretty common for breast food infants to be having some amount of constipation. If your kid is passing motion once in 3 days that means it is normal for him and it is his regular cycle to pass stools. I advice you not to use Dulcolax for a longer time as it is not the natural way to make stools come. This hard stools I'd quite common especially when formula feeding is also initiated. Try giving your kid exclusive breast feeds till 6 months of age. Regards - Dr. Sumanth
