Mam i would suggest if ur babys problem is longterm,then the cause for constipation have to be worked up.
Some organic causes like hypothyroidism, intestinal problems etc can cause constipation.if they r ruled out then it is functional.then modify diet and continue peg.apply smuth ointment near anus.
She has to take plenty of oral fluids.
