Hi - have scanned a good amount of the other threads but can't find what I am looking for - DD is nearly 3 and for some time had been pooing only twice a week, very large poos, not hard but she did get very upset whilst doing them, crying etc. We tried a few over the counter things and prune juice etc, finally went to doc for Movicol. She had a week of one sachet a day, however a bit hit and miss as she hates the taste. She did a couple of soft poos, one every other day, seemed happy enough. The last week was a bit crazy and she wasn't sleeping well, so hasn't had any for about 5/6 days.
She has now however been soiling her pants almost constantly the last few days. little bits of poo, very soft, she doesn't even know she is doing it. She does this about 4 times a day at the worst.
I am going to make an appointment at the GP I think, but not sure if this is normal, should I try to get her to take the sachet (no idea how, she is vehement she won't have it no matter how it is disguised) and keep this up for a while longer, will the soiling settle when she is totally cleared out - I am really not sure what to do for the best. She has today been telling me her bottom hurts - I think this is the soft poo, maybe being acidic, and the fact that she isn't telling me and I am relying on smell to know she has pooed.
Hope someone with more experience can help with some advice!
