Multi Strain probiotics are known to be good in functional constipation and abdominal pain in babies. Prune Juice extract may also be tried for constipation. Use of Formula Milk may also cause these problems you mentioned. Try to keep your baby on exclusive breast feeding. If still you think, the situation is not under control, please consult your pediatrition.
