“Should laxatives be given to babies in case of constipation?”
My baby has severe constipation. The doctor says it is okay and will improve on its own, but I'm still worried. Should I give him any laxatives?

Sometimes, simple natural laxatives like prune juice in a tiny amount may help. You can check with a pediatric gastroenterologist specialist.
In general, laxatives are not recommended.
