DD1 suffered really bad constipation when she was 18months. She is 4.3 now and since then has feared pooing as she associates it with pain. So she holds it in. She has been on movicol but it doesn't really help. We have seen a specialist but that was a waste of time. She was doing really well, pooing every day / every other day for about 2 weeks but now hasn't pooed in 5 days. The last 2 days she has tried to go but either stops cause it hurts, because she's been holding it so long, or just can't push it out. It's been going on so long and I'm just lost. We've tried everything. Has anyone
else been through/ going through something similar?
