Quick help needed- constipated 3yo

DD has been sat on the toilet for quite some time unable to squeeze out her poo. She’s getting quite upset. I’ve put her feet up on a chair, wrapped her in her dressing gown and read her stories to calm her down. I’ve now been banished while she concentrates on pushing Grin

Any tips?

The Ella Baby fruit puree pouches always worked.

Or as she's mid-poo, putting her in the bath will help her and her bum to relax and it should come easier.

More fibre and fluids should help soften it up.

Glass of fresh orange and a bath.

Definitely a warm bath and orange juice

Prune juice.

Warm milk and some jumping around (probably not ideal so close to bedtime but hey, better out than in!)

Stewed prunes work very well.
