Hi, 2YO LG is constipated, 3 full days no poo and strained a bit. Plenty of trumps, tummy soft, no belly ache. Eating and drinking well. Usually 1-2 poos a day.
Do I take to GP in am or try some lactulose. Worried if we get to weekend etc and hasn't gone. Thanks

At this point it's not so much when she goes but more whether or not it hurts when she does go. You really don't want it to lead to poo withholding.

Lactulose would be good but Id still suggest going to GP.

Thank you, I might give her some lactulose I'm am but also ring GP for their advice.
