well hun , im totally on the same page as you my 3yr Ds is tramatised to do a poo , due to constipation , now hes hard poos one day , sloppy poos the next , i cant work it out .

i booked in to see a naturpath and another GP as i am getting frustrated at him for pooing his pants (hours after he tells me he needs to go) and its strssing me out .

i am switching to soy milk , but thats about it so far diet wise .

its hard seeing them run around and cry in pain . one night DH and i gave him a enema (microlax) and the poor boy was beside him self .

the other day my DS was so bad , and trying to poo , i put a lubed finger in there and the hard poo was about 2 cm in , just stuck there , eventually he pooed his pants and cried coz it hurt

will be watching this thread and thinking of you both !

oh just rememberd , inner health plus for kids , helped my DD with contipation when she was on meds for a while - just a suggestion
