How to properly handle constipation during pregnancy?

Patient's question:

The baby is six months old and hasn't had a bowel movement for six days. I don't know what to do.

Doctor's answer:

It is suggested that this may be due to improper feeding, causing the baby's gastrointestinal peristalsis to be too fast. Bile mixes with residual waste and secretions in the gastrointestinal tract, forming a viscous substance. It is recommended to give the baby more water and keep them appropriately warm. If there is no improvement, it is advised to seek medical treatment.
