treating constipation?
Hello,
Can I have some tips and advice please. Aplogise for TMI,
At the w/e was the first time my lo has suffered with constipation. She didnt go sat and sun you could tell it was a struggle and in pain to poo. When she went hubby said it was very solid. She went mon am and it was semi solid so I thinking it was getting better. Then mon eve it was solid again. It was in pellets but just a solid lump. I guess you could say more formed like an adults, but its obviously quite a large sizer for a toddler to pass.
Been trying to encourage her to drink. Apart from prune juice is thereany other type of drink she should be having in particular? and ow much should she be drinking?
Ive been rubbing her tummy and doing bicycle movement with her leg. Ive been looking at her diet and she has fibre in every meal, just need to up her fruit and veg. What else can I do to help her.
Shes been straining again this morning. She has been going every other day this last week but I didnt think much of it as very loose as teething.
