DD has constipation issues sometimes and I give her 1 tbsp of Benefiber powder (per the pediatrician). It has no odor or taste and I put it in her water.




Does that help?

What I'm confused about is whether this is constipation or a phase that he's going through...

When he first started telling me that he had to poop...it would always take a couple of tries but by the second or thired trip to the potty he would go. But all day??????? Don't know....

A lot of times children are afraid to have a bowel movement outside of their diapers. My son went through a phase like that when he first started training.

water is out cuz this kid will notice the difference...lol



Water's not out - Miralax has no taste at all. DD has been on and off of it for years (even back when it was a perscription)

The only suggestion I have is to mix the powder with some room temp or slightly warm water (maybe an ounce or so) to get it to dissolve, then add cold water to that. It doesn't always dissolve fully in the cold water.

Good Luck !!

Should I cut out milk? He only has it in the mornings and asks for it as soon as he wakes up...

Also can I give him a grilled cheese sandwhich on whole wheat bread?

ETA: He has 1% milk

He ended up pooping 3 times yesterday. I think the pear flavored yogurt I gave him may have had something to do with it. The 3rd time he went was very loose.

Guess I gotta keep monitoring what he does over the next couple of days...
