[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If it were me, I would try other methods to ease constipation before Miralax. Prunes and dates in a fruit smoothie would be the first thing I would try. Also do some research on magnesium suppliments, I know that makes me go, and most people are deficicent. Here's a blog post with some other ideas for constipation. http://funkyfoodallergies.blogspot.com/2012/04/its-all-about-poop-alternatives-to.html#!/2012/04/its-all-about-poop-alternatives-to.html Good luck. Waking up with a wet bed is no fun for anyone and washing sheets gets old quick. [/quote] If the poop is hard and stuck enough that it's causing this kind of bed wetting, roughage etc won't work, it will just add to the bulk. This child needs an osmotic like Miralax to pump water into the colon and soften the huge mass.[/quote]
