Dear,
Thanks for posting your query.

Your baby needs more fiber in the form of fruits and vegetables and lot of liquids. This will help in easing stools.

Anyways you can now give lactose syrup at night for 2 days only. Please get it prescribed by the pediatrician.

Do let me know if you have more concerns.

Wishing your child good health.

Regards
