Hi, my twin girl is getting horrible constipation, crying in pain when she needs to poo. Itstarted before xmas, docs gave her lactolase, which slowly helped after a week or so. Then a week or two of very runny poo, even diarohoehrha (spelling!). Now back again to horrible constipation. She hardly poo'd today and is clearly distressed. Very touchy and clingy and crying with pain. I've taken her a couple of times to the osteopath. Back to the doc's do you think? Have been working hard to get prunes / brown bread / tangerines into her. Any other ideas? She's not drinking enough, but as you will all know, you can take a toddler to water, but you can't make them drink! Help please.
