Hello,
You have to give mother milk only. If possible you may give smashed carrot or mashed potatoes etc.
If necessary you may give laxative under your doctor guidance.
Please consult your pediatrician he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
