How To Know If Your Baby Is Constipated

Scott Cohen (Pediatrician, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center) gives expert video advice on: How do I know if my baby is constipated?

How do I know if my baby is constipated?

Constipated babies often will not only strain and grunt and seem like they're in pain, but the poop will often come out in hard little pellets as well. There may be a long duration between one poop and the other when a baby is constipated.
