My 2 year old DD (3 in February) suffers from horrific constipation to the point she has fissures and bleeds with bowel movements. She's always been constipated even as a baby, we managed it with prunes from about 6-12 months, then went on to lectulose and tried a few other over the counter type things. We moved from toddler formula to whole milk when was 2, we stuck the formula because she got vitamins from it and liked it. I noticed when we changed to whole or sometimes use jersey, her constipation got worse. The GP won't have this and says she needs calcium. We recently got prescribed cosmocol sachets and the only way I can get her to take it is in milk! We've started using them alongside something called bioray, a homeopathic remedy recommended by someone (at this point I'm willing to try anything!) This may sound totally stupid but will semi skimmed milk be better? She won't drink any dairy milk alternatives, we've tried and she doesn't like the formula now. When on holiday for a week in Spain, she had no milk (only in cereal) and whilst still constipated I would say it was noticeably less than usual. She also loves milk so much! She does drink alot of water too but won't drink anything else, won't drink fresh juice or cordial, don't want her having cordial anyway but would be helpful for these circumstances! Any other advice? I'm not crazy, the milk definitely doesn't help not matter what GP says!
