Baby Constipation - Things You Need to Know, Constipation is the condition in which defecation becomes difficult and painful. It can occur in babies too for various reasons. Normally infants have 4-5 bowel movements daily. Breast-fed babies will have more bowel movements than formula-fed babies, and they rarely develop constipation. Constipation occurs when there is a violation of normal bowel function. Normal bowel function in babies can vary on several grounds. As age increases and complementary food is introduced, babies tend to develop lesser bowel movements. Bowel movements occurring two times a day in a 6 months old baby is very normal, and any rate less than that is to be identified as constipation.

Explaining for Baby Constipation:

When baby has painful defecation and when the consistency of the feces is hard the condition can be considered as baby constipation. One of the very noticeable signs of baby constipation is a crying baby characterized by abdominal pain. In a baby with constipation, defecation may occur daily but the feces will be thick and in small fragments. It can be caused by a dysfunctional large intestine or an abnormal colon. Mostly it is caused by pinching of feces in the lower intestine due to constriction of muscles. The more the stool remains in the intestine the harder it becomes. However, baby constipations are of two types- organic constipation and functional constipation.

In organic constipation anatomical defects or developmental disabilities play a significant role. Usually organic constipation begins at birth due to the lack of independent defecation. Other causes for organic constipation are an enlarged colon with a narrowing lower region as in Hirschsprung's disease and Dolichosigmoid.

Functional constipation may be due to a variety of reasons such as an improper diet of feeding mother, baby's reduced intake of water, artificial feeding in infancy, irregular diet of children, dehydration and mainly, oppression of the defecation reflex.
