The last three weeks with DD1 have been a cycle of constipation followed by dihorea, she is 3.6 and has been potty trained for around four months with the occasional accident but had no problems with poos in the toilet. When constipation first started the doctor proscribed lactulose which didn't seem to do anything, a few days later she was screaming in agony sitting on the toilet trying to go, so took her back to the doctor who referred her to the childrens ward at the hospital for an enima, they didn't give her one but instead gave her movicol, after being on this a couple of days she started to do really water poos and then just had dihorea, so I stopped the movicol and went back to GP, he said she didn't appear to be constipated any more and just continue as normal. That was a week ago, dihorea continued for a few more days and now she's just getting traces of poo in her pants which was one of the first indications that she was constipated in the first place, do I go back on the movicol? Or is this likely to lead to dihorea again? Am taking her to pre-school in a few minutes although putting her in pull-ups which she's not keen on but would appreciate any advice that you can give. Sorry it's so long!
