    Thanks for the replies..

    Arimeh: Definetetly no plug there as she has well and truly emptied her bowels now and all has been very soft and loose - nothing has been hard..

    Nai: Gave her some combantrin last night in case it is worms but i guess i'll have to wait till i see the Dr this afternoon if any worms were in her sample.

    black_rose: I'm thinking it's probably an irritation from the poo as well but i don't think it's a stretch/hurt issue as all her motions have been very soft (no shape at all) and I've been there when she has done them and none involved any straining or look of discomfort.

    Tinks: She has been constipated but as mentioned that has now all passed through and I think this is a secondary issue to the original constipation..

    I've booked to see the Dr this afternoon so hopefully she will have an answer for me, I've hear "ooowww" from my little girl far too much this week..

    The working packages actually say you should re treat after 2 weeks, not that you can. The worm life cycle is around that period of time and the eggs aren't destroyed by the treatment so the second dose is to kill any left. If she doesn't actually have worms it's not a drama bit of you suspect she does you should so it once then again a fortnight later


    I am someone that suffers ibs. My body goes in fits and starts of constipation and the runs. If I've been backed up and then get a lot of movement I end up quite tender. The "plug" is often rough/painful as it is dryer and it irritates things. And then the softer movement is higher in liquid (sometimes feels mildly acidic like gastro but not quite as bad). The combination leaves me sore for a couple of days. Just thought is give a grown up perspective cos it sounds similar to what your dd is going through!
