This tip is for breastfed babies & their moms. Sometimes, babies tend to get constipated if their diet / mom 's diet changes. My 5 month old baby once got constipated when I overate peanut chikis (Kadalai urundai) unknowingly. There is a home remedy that you could try to relieve baby 's constipation before consulting his/her pediatrician.
Raisins are highly nutritious and a natural source of potassium and iron (also contains calcium and fiber). So, raisins can work well to relieve constipation.
Boil 8 to 10 raisins in a glass (about 6 oz) of water and allow it to boil till the raisins are plump & soft. Now, puree the raisins with a spoon, strain them and give only the juice to your baby (approximately about 1 oz). This is safe to give for babies from 3 months & up. You can save the remaining juice / make fresh juice and give about 1 oz twice a day for 2-3 days.
