[quote=Anonymous]Miralax worked wonders for our kid at that age. But before we headed down that route our doctor had us keep a food journal to identify what foods he was eating that could be potential causes. They also said that he had a tendency towards "withholding" at school because he didn't like using the school bathrooms - or he didn't have time to use them. So there was the psychosomatic aspect of it as well. We got to a place where he took daily doses of Miralax - timed so he could go in the safe space of his own bathroom. Overtime working through diet issues, providing a safe poop place and regular movements we could stop the miralax treatments. [/quote]
