Glad shes regular now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/constipation-to-diarrhea#post-770900 Thu, 09 May 2013 15:25:50 +0000 sorrycharlie 770900@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wheres_c: we have wicked constipation issues. i bought pediatric suppositories per my doctor, they were behind the counter at the pharmacy (CVS). I cut them in half the long way, lube them up (water-based lube, like KY jelly) and push it slowly. that's only when she seriously hasn't gone. prunes, prune juice haven't worked for us anymore so the ped just started her on miralax daily to keep her regular. so far so good! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/constipation-to-diarrhea#post-770872 Thu, 09 May 2013 15:21:23 +0000 wheres_c 770872@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Freckles: yeah I'm going to keep an eye on it. He drank a ton of juice so I know that was the reason....but going to hold the juice and see what happens. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/constipation-to-diarrhea#post-770859 Thu, 09 May 2013 15:18:30 +0000 Freckles 770859@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd also lay off the prune juice for a while. I think my pediatrician told me i should be concerned if LO alternates constipation and diarrhea. It seems like in this case it's triggered by the juice,</p> <p>I know how sucky constipation can be! Hope you figure things out soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/constipation-to-diarrhea#post-770855 Thu, 09 May 2013 15:17:36 +0000 wheres_c 770855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sorrycharlie: this whole constipation thing is a struggle....I was going to call today and ask for suppositories because I didnt think the prune juice was getting us anywhere.</p> <p>Ooops poor B. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/constipation-to-diarrhea#post-770835 Thu, 09 May 2013 15:14:03 +0000 sorrycharlie 770835@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yikes! yeah, that happened with O. well we had to use a suppository but once the hard one came out, man oh man did she let loose. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/constipation-to-diarrhea#post-770802 Thu, 09 May 2013 15:10:01 +0000 prettylizy 770802@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sound like the prune juice took a while to do it's thing, and now it's really doing it. I'm with you, lay off the prune juice for a bit </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/constipation-to-diarrhea#post-770767 Thu, 09 May 2013 15:07:00 +0000 wheres_c 770767@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our 5 mo has been struggling with constipation, and our pediatrician has us giving him prune juice mixed with water daily.</p> <p>His constipation has gotten worse in the last two weeks, so I upped the prune juice at the advice of our ped.<br /> Well today we went from pooping rocks, to squirting liquid mud.</p> <p>It is everywhere...the crib, the changing table, ugh!</p> <p>Hopefully it was just a one-off. I'm going to skip the juice and call the pediatrician if its not better in the morning.</p> <p>Anyone else have to deal with constipation? Or diarrhea? </p>
