Infant constipation is the passage of hard, dry bowel movements — not necessarily the absence of daily bowel movements ||2- Breastfeeding your new baby ...Breast milk provides all the nutrients that babies need for the first six months of their life and guards against many illnesses and allergies. Also, breastfeeding can help build a special closeness with your baby. Breastfeeding is one of the best things you can do for your baby. ||Massaging infants' arms and hands can significantly reduce their pain from needle sticks ||It’s never too early to read for your child ||Set aside time to spend with each child individually, so they don't feel like they're competing for your attention ||Sleep sacks and sufficient layers of clothing are safe alternatives to blankets for children less than six months of age ||The more you help your toddler put his feelings into words (“I’m mad. I want the truck.” “I’m sad. I can’t find my bear.”), the less they will show aggressive behaviour. ||Don’t forget to put labels with date and time on your expressed milk bottles to check expiry dates ||During growth spurts - around 6 weeks after birth — your newborn might want to be fed more often ||After the first hectic weeks, babies take longer naps at predictable times.

Study: Constipation May Cause Bed-wetting

 

Feb. 2012 -- Constipation is often the cause of bedwetting in children, a small, new study suggests.

Failure to diagnose constipation as the cause of bedwetting can lead parents and children on an unnecessarily long, costly and difficult effort to cure nighttime wetting, the Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center researchers said.

Researchers found that thirty children and adolescents who sought treatment for bedwetting all had large amounts of stool in their rectums, despite the majority having normal bowel habits. Twenty five of the children (eighty three percent) were cured of bedwetting within three months, after treatment with laxative therapy. 

The study appeared recently online in the journal Urology.
