My child has been suffering with constipation since she was born. I noticed that milk and products containing milk can be a problem for my child. Since she stopped drinking milk things have been going better. A few other things that help her is to eat banana, or apple juice. When it turns into diarrhea I give her lemonade to make it stop. Her doctor prescribed Miralax but we don’t use that, I prefer to do it the natural way by changing her diet, we have not seen a specialist yet since things seems to be under control for the moment.
There is a Facebook group called TACA..hope and help for Autism.It’s a lot of functional medicine advice,which quite frankly overwhelms me,but there is some great information. on there related to constipation in our kiddos.The site moderator is quite knowledgeable.The forum is for all things autism related(behaviors,IEP’s,etc)but has gotten the nickname “The poop page” because that seems to be the subject asked about by caregivers the most.We are struggling with constipation in our three year old,so I definitely can relate.Thoughts and prayers for your little one❤️
Getting medication is only going to be a temporary fix for chronic constipation. She will need a change in diet. Start counting her fiber intake. Make sure she is getting at least 25 grams. You may not see success right away. Chronic constipation can cause the sphincter to stretch out. This makes it harder to control the bowels. It takes time for it to tighten back up.
It is better to try and make some small dietary changes than to rely on a fiber supplement. Breakfast is the best place to add fiber. Switch to a high fiber cereal. Look for breads that are high in fiber.
One other observation- I was doing Metamucil or something and then the scooper got water on it, and I wondered for awhile if I contaminated it - and ended up throwing it out after a week. I know what you mean about wondering about what’s going on with that- and the formulas are hard to keep sanitary as well because you scoop it.
