Re: Constipation protocol HELP!!

[Guest guest]

Ugh! We are not even close to having nut flour (at least 2-3 months away) so I

guess that's out for us. I have taken everything from the constipation protocol

to include the simmered down prune juice and suppository with no luck. Elaine

mentions " the muffins " so I was hopeful that it would be something for a

beginner. Any other suggestions? Our situation is causing pain, crying, and fear

of pooping b/c it is so hard and " wide " that it's painful. We are only three

days into the diet and have never had constipation before! HELP!!!

Are you using probiotics? That may help.

It's not an SCD thing, but it is not unheard of to administer them rectally

for acute constipation.

hi lisa, i'm new too my daughter has been on scd for 1 month, she

has some mild sensory stuff but incredily leaky intestines. she was

constipated this past week and sheila advised me to use pecan flour,

as it tolerated by most kids. it is definitely sooner than i would

have introduced it, but she said the last thing you want is to get

them impacted, so i did just 1/4 of a pancake each day, it took a

few days but now she is going. i am not going to give them to her

again just so she can heal some more, but i was able to avoid any

kind of trauma.
