Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi,
Thanks and welcome to healthcare magic .
A one and a half year old baby, if he passes less than 4 motions/week it is called constipation.
You may use some laxative for constipation .
I usually prescribe Lactulose syrup.
Feeding fiber containing and energy dense foods like whole wheat bread, leafy vegetables will prevent constipation.
Excess of milk consumption leads to constipation .
Hope this answer serves your purpose .
Please feel free to ask further queries if any.
