Guest guest Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 So happy to her the hospital nightmare is over and your daughter is safely home and feeling better. Getting more magnesium into her diet, as other parents have already suggested, is a super idea. My daughter was the queen of constipation. We use ’s brand of aloe vera juice (tastes like water) with our daughter. You only need up to 1/4th cup a day to keep everything flowing. I buy it at my local health food store. Good luck! _____ From: Autism_in_Girls [mailto:Autism_in_Girls ] On Behalf Of Missy and Brent Pearsall Sent: Tuesday, January 02, 2007 4:35 PM To: Autism_in_Girls Subject: is home I can't thank you all enough for your prayers and kind words. is home now. The hospital determined that she was just so severly constipated it was causing her severe pain and to vomit. Thanks to lots of laxatives her bowels are now moving and she is drinking again. She is asleep now and I hope all her tummy pain is soon gone. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to keep her from getting constipated? We have been dealing with constipation issues since she was an infant. She used to be on miralax but the GI took her off last spring because we had to double the dose to get it to be even a little effective. She I ask the doctor to put her back on it. She drinks pediasure with fiber. She is on a pureed foods diet. I know she won't drink metamucil. Thanks. Missy (proud mom to ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
