Could Tri-Vi-Sol Cause Constipation In A Baby?

My 5 month old has not had passed stool in two days (this is day three). I recall being constipated when I was pregnant and my doc told me to lay off the prenatal vitamins for a few days .. until I become regular again. Do you think its possible that her vitamin, Tri-vi-sol is aiding in her constipation? Would it help to take her off the vitamin for a few days?
