Hello,I am new to this site, but I have been reading and am really impressed with the everyones knowledge and comments and willingness to help others. I hope someone will be able to help me.I have a 2 year old daughter who has had problems with bowel movements since I weaned her from breast milk at 10 months. Since then she is alway constipated and it hurts her a lot to go. She walks on her tip toes, pulls as her diaper, and whines and cries. It breaks my heart. This goes on sometimes up to 3-4 hours until she goes. I have asked doctors but have gotten nowhere. Finally I got a new Dr. he prescribed Miralax. I give her 1/2 a dose every morning in her juice. It seemed to have worked with the discomfort that she was feeling however she started going 4-5 sometimes more often in a day. Then it became diahreah. I quit giving it to her, thinking that she was getting too much, now she is no longer constipated but she is back to being in pain and she goes quite often. It is so hard to know what is happening because she doesn't know how to tell me what is wrong except by saying "hurts" and pulling at her diaper. As her mother it is so hard for me to see her in pain and not be able to help her.Does anyone have any suggestions?
