yay, I hope she has turned the corner! I agree with Benthany, don't remind her to go for a few days and see if she'll go by herself, then you'll know she is finally there. These spirited kids always have to have control over everything!

I use calcium lactate powder as a supplement, never had any problems with constipation with that. Maybe it's the form of the calcium supplement? I also add a magnesium supplement to go with it which is meant to have a laxative effect so maybe that heps.

Leorah's calcium supplement is also a magnesium supplement so maybe that is ok? She pooped again in bed last night  :D It does seem like things are moving and she is really happy about it and has told us she doesn't have tummy ache anymore! She is having oat milk with a teaspoon of flax oil and a probiotic in the morning and evening. My fingers are crossed but I am scared of jinxing things  :)

Hope it continues Katt! It's so good that she's not in pain anymore, that is a great step forwards in itself :)

Thanks, she had another small poo this morning which meant she woke about an hour early, seems like she is emptying her very full bowels!

Yeah, they get such a bad press I thought I'd big them up  ;)

Tonight L had a bath and was really enjoying it and then suddenly panicked got out and sat on the loo, nothing happened so she asked me to help her poo  ::) I rubbed her tummy but nothing happened and after she asked for a nappy, I think to feel safe! We left it on 20 mins and the she needed a wee and we left it off, I am wondering if she is unsure of what a fart is compared to a poo or perhaps because she is pooing so much she is feeling a bit nervous of accidents!

She certainly seems very aware! I hope she continues to do well now though with no more withholding. I suppose it could be confusing for them to differentiate between farts and poo coming. their awareness is still quite new.

This morning we had wee refusal again  :P She said her tummy hurt and she was scared to go to the loo so I told her her tummy hurts when she holds it in, she eventually weed and I asked her if her tummy still hurt and she said no so I told her that is because she went to the toilet and that her body tells her when she needs to go! Not sure how much she takes in and understands but I can see it is still baby steps!

I'm glad she went. Hopefully she'll make the connection that going makes things better, holding in makes it hurt.

At that ag  Iused to tell my son that he should try to do a poo every day, otherwise it would get hard and hurt his tummy. He got it no problms.
