Why Is My Toddler Always Hungry?

My one year old daughter who is 30 inches long and weighs 28.6 pounds has been hungry nonstop lately. She screams because she is hungry only 3 minutes after a meal. Unless I feed her she wont stop crying. She has also had a very distended stomach and has been constipated here and there but still wants to eat. What should I do

hi, a hungry child is often not a major problem. Make sure she eats proper diet in adequate calories. She might need adequate water and fiber intake to avoid constipation. Once her bowel habits are normalised, her eating ll be fine.
