remedies for constipation

If you do add benefiber (it is a good choice) make sure he’s drinking lots of fluids as well. Since it’s a bulk forming laxative, it needs fluids to keep the stools soft.

All bran now makes great tasting “snack bites” – seriously, they taste pretty good! I buy the cinnamon and brown sugar flavoured ones. I got them for myself, but my 2 year old begs me for some whenever I eat them!

Raisins also have lots of fiber, and kids usually like to eat them better than they’ll eat their veggies!

Addy went through a spell where she was getting constipated and since she can’t tolerate any food remedies, our pedi suggested Fleet Babylax suppositories (sp?). I only did 1/3 of the liquid and it worked in 30 minutes! Just a suggestion for all non-solid eaters out there.
