Charlie has problems with constipation. He was severely constipated tonight, until he finally went after I put him down to sleep. I had to go back in there and change him... poor guy.
Constipation is also a problem on one side of his parent's family tree. But not on the other, so maybe he will grow out of it? Alas, that's probably not how genetics work huh.
Is your LO constipated? Is there a history of constipation in your family?

LO isn't constipated.. I used to be constipated during college and beyond, but cured myself of it once I started eating better.

I'm very constipated and have suffered since I was a kid. It was discovered that I was lactose-intolerant when I was in grade 5 but still, even cutting out dairy didn't help me. I hope LO doesn't become like me!

I have stomach issues and chronic constipation that resulted in having a colostomy for 3 months and lots of hospital time when I was a kid. I'm fine now if I take my medicine everyday and watch what I eat.
I'm definitely worried about my kids having these issues. When I went to my gastroenterologist last year, I asked about genetics and he said my specific case was probably a birth defect, but there's no real way of knowing.
