went to 'constipation clinic'

[Guest guest]

took my 2.5 year old to constipation clinic due to severe 'holding' and one year

on Miralax and no improvement...she was diagnosed as 100% behavioral.... and I

shared my concerns about Mira with the NP and she said " I didn't know there were

support groups about miralax, we use it all the time " and I am bad at stating

facts from studies, so I just left it at " I don't want to use it anymore " and

she was all... " ok...... " and put her on " Little Tummies " lax 1 tsp daily.

claims it is a 'natural' senna laxtive. no worries. It's been a few weeks, and

it's weird, although we still have rare poops...actually it almost seems like

she never has a big poop.. just like splatters every so often (always in dipe,

never potty).. but no vicious holding. If she'd hold in the corner, I'd lovingly

place her on the potty to break the extension posture.... but I haven't been

able to use this technique because I can't catch her holding... she just doesn't

seem to poop.

Anyway... is Little Tummies ok? should I up the dose to get a bigger poop???
