Heavy constipation along with fear.
My kid was always a constipated one.
We keep giving her lot of water, prunes everyday , oats but she still gets constipated for 5 days at least every month and now this has become worse. She gets constipated for 5 days every 15 days . When she goes on 6th day it is just pellets and lot of pain . Her food intake is normal. She has sufficient outdoor activities as well as in playschool. We end up giving pegclear every 6th day as she is in lot of pain .
We are planning to take homeopathic advice as well now. Anything else that we can try to do to help her?
She is an active kid as well even during her constipation.
