Have you tried enzymes? Someone here mentioned that that's what helped

their child's belly. We've been gradually building up the enzymes here for

almost 2 weeks now. My DS3's belly seems to be a little smaller, so I'm

hopeful. I hadn't heard about it being stool stuck in the gut. My son has

always been very proficient with BMs - he's been doing much better on SCD.
