Patient's question:
My baby is four months old, and then we started giving her yellow yolk. After introducing solid food, the baby started constipation. She always makes noises but doesn't poop. What should we do if the baby starts constipation after introducing solid food?Doctor's answer:
After the baby starts complementary feeding, their dietary habits change, making them more prone to constipation. This is especially true for babies who transition from a single liquid diet to a variety of different foods, as their intestines also need time to adjust. If foods like egg yolks and meat are introduced initially, which lack dietary fiber, it may lead to constipation. You can adjust the diet by including some soft foods.
