constipation in toddlers

[firewoman24]

mods, i looked for the thread about this wala ako mahanap

anyway, sa mga gt moms like me, my 4 yr old daughter has constipation. i dont know if its because of the milk, or diet whatsover

can you share some sure fire tips that helps?tia

My son takes probiotics supplements everyday. So far wala naman siyang issues.
Of course he gets a lot of fiber din through vegetables and brown rice. Too much cheese can cause constipation and white rice din. Basically the starches can get you blocked up, if it's not balanced by fiber.

yung daughter ko din madalas ang pagiging constipated niya. ginagawa ko before, binawasan ko ng scoop yung milk niya, and inom ng water regularly. Then medyo nagsubside but nung napapadalas ulit, nagswitch na ako ng Milk. Ngayon ang milk niya Gain IQ kids, maganda sa tiyan, so far ganda naman ang poo-poo ng baby ko.

My daughter had it when she was 1 year old. What I did was I inserted dolculax (for kids) sa anus niya, wala pa sigurong 2 minutes napupu na siya agad. I just used one, effective agad.

my kid before had a traumatic experience about this, upto the point na di na sya kumakain, hai mga sis, you could just imagine hirap ng baby ko at 1000x time hirap sa akin as a mom. What I did was prunes naman, then water, water. Ginawa ko din yung bawasan ang scoops ng milk.

remember ko yung niece ko before sa kanya naman ang major culprit is yung milk formula niya so pinalitan and then increase fluids plus prune juice..

Sis ganyan din eldest ko. Hanggang ngayon nga e mag 5 n sya. Hina kasi kumain walang fiber sa katawan. pakainin mo kaya prunes.

water, yakult and yogurt - yan lang katapat ng constipation ng daughter ko

Too much cheese can cause constipation and white rice din.

i so agree. white rice is the main cause for my daughter's constipation.

a small pack serving of raisins daily helps ease the constipation.

agree ako kawawa kapag nag coconstipate...my 2 year old boy din kase naiiyak kapag nag poop..i told our pedia..she asked me to stop giving him yakult..apple..banana. i never thought na nakaka constipate ang yakult. ..but she recommends yakult naman kapag naka antibiotic ang son ko kase he tends to have diarhea naman kapag me gamot na ganyan..

[dec_girl]

my son used to experience constipation din.  we used suppository to help him kasi kawawa talaga siya, as in sobrang makaiyak although the pedia advise us not to use it frequently kasi magiging dependent naman. we also encouraged him to drink plenty of water. when he turned 4 years old, ayun nabawasan na yung constipation until unti-unti nag-improved na talaga.

prune juice lang ang katapat ng constipation

[leletmd]

Giving probiotics is a good way of treating constipation because it helps regulate the intestinal system as well as help strengthen the immune system.
Other good remedies for constipation include prune juice, papaya, oats and fiber as well as lots of water...
I would not really recommend using suppository often since in time, the child will be dependent on it.

Prunes and papaya

anak ko super constipated but hiyang sya sa yakult...nung nag yakult sya medyo lumabot ang poop nya

[beaupink]

ganyan din yung girl ko. na try ko na lahat. ayaw ko naman masanay sa glycerin at meds. kaya sinubukan ko i vita plus  nag ok na pupu niya. pero every other day ko lang pina take kasi magastos. kahit di siya everyday nag pupu pero pag nag pupu siya malambot na kaya di na siya hirap.

[yiephine14]
