Babyboy Constipation
My grandson whom I met when he was 3 months old has been straining to have bowel movements since then. He is now 17 months old. I keep him a lot but I can't take him to doctor. His mom doesn't take this serious. He is in terrible pain and gets stiff as a board, crying and straining nut nothing. I did get her to take him to ER on April 30 of this year. He was 11 months old then and was given prescription for a powder like substance to make him poop.I wiped blood
