Not passing motion daily
Hi,
My daughter (3years and 5 months old)was constipated once and it pained while pooping.. from that day she gets the urge to poop daily but controls for 5 to 6 days fearing pain. Poops only when we hold her for sometime without leaving her to sit and control it.
Spoke a lot to her and tried giving fiber rich foods,fruits and dry grapes water but still she does the same for 5 days.
Please help on how can we make her poop daily and come out of the fear.
Thank you,
Prabha Karthik (Mother)

If she has no problems then if she doesn't poop daily is not an issue. But yes the more poop remains in the stomach, harder it gets to pass.
Encourage more liquids.
