Constipation problem in a 4-month-old baby?
⚡ Short answer: Constipation is not as common in babies fed with formula or breast milk alone as people think — what really matters is whether the baby is straining and what the consistency of the stool is.

Constipation is actually not commonly seen in a baby fed with formula or breast milk alone — most of the time families mistake hard stool for constipation when the baby isn't actually straining. Can you describe your baby's poop: is it hard dry pellets, or does it come out squeezed but mushy? Also, is the baby getting only breast milk, or is there formula supplementation? Once these are clear, I can guide you better.
