Hi All--one of our new members sent this to my personal email and I

and help her out? THANKS everyone!

I'm new on this board..I have a son, McGuire (ASD)....one of our

first signs (after vaccinatons, but we won't get into that) was

constipation along with night waking... After his diagnosis at 2.5

years of age, I began researching......We have been on the GFCF diet

for over 2 years, but his constipation remains...Miralax worked in

the beginning, but isn't " doing it " for us anymore....I read many

explanations and they are quite enlightening. Lately, he's been with

holding...or at least we think he's with holding...I truly beleive

it's a combination of with holding and Miralax damage. Question is:

Now what? I'm going to start Benefiber today....also, we'll try the

pear juice...already taking Mag. and Vit. C......I'm in the process

of becoming a Board Certified Behavior Analyst therefore I would

like to add to the other treatments by using a behavioral

intervention as well. Has anyone heard of a behavioral interention

for with holding? I'm going to research this, but wanted a heads

up. Thanks for helping!! Glad to be part of your group!
