constipation may be due to lack of enough fluids or lack of fibers in her food
in the meanwhile you can give her glycerin suuppository or lactulose syrup
a 6 month old baby should start eating fruits and vegetables, minced chicken , soft cheese, cooked plain rice and pasta.. you should administer only one new type of food per week , start with small amounts then increase gradually
offer orange juice daily it will help very much in regulating the bowel movements of the baby
