Could she have your gluten intolerance? maybe lay off the weetbix for a bit and see if that makes a difference. You can get kiwi juice its more concentrate that eating them and not as acidic, I drink it to help me, so you could try that as well maybe.]]> Wed, 13 Aug 2008 22:18:11 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20069&PID=467010&title=constipation#467010 <![CDATA[Constipation : Yep I have been doing that this...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20069&PID=466881&title=constipation#466881 Author: busymum

Yep I have been doing that this week but the constipation I described is "normal" for her, not just lately.]]> Wed, 13 Aug 2008 20:48:47 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20069&PID=466881&title=constipation#466881 <![CDATA[Constipation : I think juicy fruit like pears,...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20069&PID=466877&title=constipation#466877 Author: yummymummy

I think juicy fruit like pears, peaches, kiwifruit are all supposed to help with constipation. Prune juice and prunes work wonders too - would she eat any?
BTW is it a new thing or has it been happening for a while?]]> Wed, 13 Aug 2008 20:47:36 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20069&PID=466877&title=constipation#466877 <![CDATA[Constipation : I would give her a couple of kiwifruit...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20069&PID=466774&title=constipation#466774 Author: mummy_becks

I would give her a couple of kiwifruit that will help her out.

Kryssi (20mos) is having trouble with constipation, but I'm not sure if it's a regular kind of constipation or a too much kind of constipation IYGWIM? She is definitely straining and pushing off and on during the day and she gets it out - usually a ball of poo and oftentimes still sitting in her crack. She drinks plenty of water as far as I can tell and I'm making a conscious effort to offer water at least at every meal (5). But she often asks (and is granted) for water regularly throughout the day as well. She has a piece of fruit each day, which I'm looking to up to two, and a couple of weetbix most breakfasts. All in all her diet seems pretty well-balanced.

So is it just normal toddler constipation or does it warrant a dr visit? What would you do?]]> Wed, 13 Aug 2008 19:34:07 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20069&PID=466757&title=constipation#466757
