Causes of Constipation in Infants

Constipation in babies can be caused by several factors, including:
- **Change in diet:** Switching from breast or infant milk to solid foods can cause changes in baby's stools.
- **Dehydration:** Insufficient fluid intake can make stools harder and difficult to pass.
- **Medical Factors:** In rare cases, constipation may be a symptom of an underlying medical condition.

Constipation Prevention

- **Hydration:** Make sure your baby drinks enough water, especially when he starts eating solid foods.
- **Food rich in fiber:** Gradually introduce foods rich in fiber such as fruit and vegetable purees.
