Guest guest Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 For pooping, try aloe vera juice (a dietary supplement). When our 4 yr old doesn't poop for a couple of days we give him an ounce of aloe vera juice in some apple juice. Works fast for him. I have heard this is habit-forming, so it should not be a regular thing. If constipation becomes a chronic problem, as it is for us, you might consider Oxypowder (start with a small amount, like 1/2 capsule a day, and work up to whatever level brings regularity.) We recently stopped Oxypowder and now use Salba/Salvia (1 scoop/day), which is like a natural metamucil. We also give 1 cap of magnesium/calcium currently.

He has not had a bowel movement since Tuesday morning before the doc visit. I am also starting him on Nystatin today and will order a multimineral and probiotic today. Is this normal that he is not pooping? I'm concerned and do not want to take him to the emergency room to get an enima. Please help. > > Thanks, > Kildjian > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
