Constipation
- Halyeigh-- Hayleigh has had some constipation issues. We have to give her a enema once a week. We put her on the toliet at first till she pushes all the liquid out. Then we lay her on the bathroom floor and sometimes have to help her pass the rest. Some are to large to get out on her own. She does take a stool softener daily, It helps but not perfect. We have tried other home remedeys but this works the best for us.
- Emily- We've found something that's been working for Em lately to avoid constipation. Thought I'd share it in case anyone else is looking for something new to try. It comes from a good friend of ours who is also our family doc. Power Pudding! Equal parts of: prune juice or baby food prunes applesauce wheat bran Give 2-3 tablespoons 1-2 times a day. Em gets 2-4 tablespoons a day and it's been working great.
- Maia- I have found this to be a rather healthy helper for constipation. My doctor suggested that Maia eat it every afternoon and to use a babybifidus supplement as well. Made a huge difference IMMEDIATELY. I usually make it up in batches to last for 3-4 days. It keeps very well. 1 Granny Smith apple (peeled) 1 pear (peeled) 2-3 prunes 1 tbsp olive oil
- Anne-Lorène- (in response to question asked on the listserv) Anne-Lorène uses « Lansoyl » for her constipation. Annick
- Astrid- (in response to a question posed on the listserv) We've struggled with constipation for the last 3+ years, and finally have something that is working. I know this is different for each girl, but I'll go through the things we've been through in case any of this is useful to you.
- Burgundy- Burgundy suffered with constipation for years we just gave her mineral oil all the time she has outgrown that for the most part now but it was one more struggle we delt with for years. Tammy and Burgundy 8
