Juicy prunes and porridge ? That should do the trick.

Prunes.

Or ask your pharmacist for lactulose syrup.

Do you know why she is constipated? Has she started eating/drinking something new recently?

Lots of fluid and fruit. Strawberries, kiwi and mango work well. No weetabix as it clogs bowels up. If all else fails try lactulose from chemist.

Fresh orange juice - dilute half and half with water.
YY to prunes and lactulose too.

A kiwi fruit a day. And lots of liquid/water.
