Home remedies- such as diet changes, exercise movement and massage- may help relieve constipation in babies. If these do not help , a caregiver may need to seek medical advice
1. Exercise: exercise and movement tends to stimulate bowels.
2. A warm bath: can relax abdominal muscles and help them stop straining
3. Hydration :
4. Fruit juices
5 other dietary changes: puréed broccoli and carrots,
Add oatmeal, puréed peaches or prunes
6. Massage: gentle massage may help relieve constipation.

Curds do not cause constipation.
Give her lapsi (thuli) instead of rice and add some veggies to it.
