Constipation is quite common in babys less than 1yrs of age
No need to worry for that
Give tummy times frequently in a day time
Feed ur baby as per demand
Burp properly at least 10 min or till baby take 4 burp
Keep a watch on urine output
Baby should pass minimum urine 6-8 times per day
If baby is feeling discomfort and crying exessively then
