Help me please!!!

Help me please!!!

I have a three year old son. He has had problems going to poopy. When I take him to the doctor they just write it off and tell me he is doing it to himself. I see him in pain trying to push the poopy out, he is NOT doing this to himself. I don't know that  much about medical stuff. I just know I love my babies, and I am tired of watching him suffer. He sometimes goes for days and weeks without a bowel movement. I have tried all the medicines out there. Something has to give. I know that any medical problem left untreated can kill you, and I can't live without my kids. Both my babies are vomiting now with no other symptoms, I am confused. Someone please tell me what to do.

Dear sheda.

i think u r from india, if not its not matter here, all i have to say just keep ur self cool and calm first. first of all just take a look at food u r giving to ur babies, it may contain too much fiber (its my oppinion only),
tyr some castor oil. but more effective is the seeds from which caster oil made.

its just gradmom's racepy.

or for batter just visit another doc.

regards.

I just want to say - please don;t use castor oil.  I don't recommend it for adults let alone babies - it's one of those very strong irritant laxatives that ties your stomach in knots for hours and then gives you diarrhea!

You need to get your children in to see a Pediatric Gastroenterologist ASAP!!  A child should never go this long without a bowel movement.  Do not use any type of laxative on your babies without the advice of a doctor.  If your child is vomiting but not having any bowel movements, then take him to the ER!  It may be diet, and may not be, only a qualified doctor can tell you this!  Get your babies to the doctor.

I use miralax on my 4 year old.  Check with your pediatrician on what dosage to give your child. You have to mix it with your childs drink every day and it makes it easier to have a bm.
