I have a 15 month old son he has too much constipation, if igive him laxative he gets diarrhea what should ido
Answers:
My son was always this way and later it became a little bigger problem. Ask your doc for a list of foods that are constipating. You would be really surprised at what is on that list. Some foods people think help work the other way.
When a child is constipated like this and it goes on for years they land up stretching there intestines and lose the feeling of having to poop like normal for a while.
Kero syrup or a little mineral oil will make the BM more slippery to come out naturally but, you need to find the root of the problem.
Of course cheese and Banana's are a big no, no but, again get the list from the Dr. that explains more constipating foods.
lots of fluids, particularly water and a little fruit juice.
Also, give him some fruit.
