[quote=Anonymous]The longer you leave this untreated the more damage and healing time that will be needed. The stool ends up impacted, eventually leading to encopresis. End result of stalling tends to be doctors prescribing the child be on Miralax for nearly a year and sometimes combined with stronger laxatives if to be used anytime they don't go in a few days while on the Miralax. Attempting to potty train without treating the chronic constipation pretty much always backfires and leads to them trying to hold it in more making matters worse. Getting the Miralax going now likely means a lower dose for a shorter duration of time, and a child that will be potty trained earlier. Once the damage has healed and the fear of the pain they experience fades, then you will be on your way to potty training. [/quote]
