my poor son
My son is six years old and ever since he was six days old he has had issues with constipation. He was colic for three months and once we changed formula seven times we finally found the right one but he suffered with the constipation. We would use q-tips to stimulate, pedi lax, glicerin suppositories, and twice enemas. Then he went on whole milk and it was worse. Brought him to a gastro dr and told to give myralax. That lasted until he was two or three.
We have figured out that dairy was his enemy. And have limited his intake. But now at 6 years old he's having accidents in school and not telling anyone. Yesterday he came home and finally told me that he pooped his pants in gym. Didn't tell anyone. He had poop all down his legs and back.
Then it was a horrible night. This poor kid birthed a child. His little body just couldn't get it out. It was like he was a baby all over again. Whipped out all the old tricks.
I'm sorry this is so long but I plan on making a doctors apt for another gastro dr. But anyone else have anything similar and found any relief for their child?
