Constipation and day time wetting issues 3yr old
Posted: Fri Jun 15, 2018 10:41 am
Im looking for help and suggestions on potty training.
My daughter is 3yrs 8m.
We have been trying to train her now for around 1.5-2yrs on and off and continuously for the last 3months.
She is currently taking movicol daily for constipation issues. I have read there are links with constipation and wetting but how do i over come them?
She is very up and down with her toileting habbits, some days stays dry all day (with regular guidance) other days she wets upto 10+ times even when asked to go. Ive contact the gp with little outcome to rule out any other issues.
Ive tried all i can think of... rewards, potty, toilet, guiding a routine, child led, letting her pick pants and removing nappies (pull ups) from view, reduced cordial in diet and she has never ate much sugar, but does love fruit. I dont no where to go next?
Im sure its making her misrable being wet so much, as she has started crying when shes wet alot of the time (or possibly a tired issue)
We feel like we cant go anywhere or do anything and our life has been put on hold for months along with her missing out on so much.
