Yes, constipation can occur in a 5-month-old child. It is recommended to give Lax-A-Day to children at a dosage of 1 gram of powder per kilogram of the baby's weight. This would be approximately 6 grams of Lax-A-Day powder for a baby weighing 14 pounds, mixed in a small amount of any liquid and given once a day. If you need help measuring the exact amount of powder, you can ask your pharmacist for assistance.
