How do you know if your child is constipated?

Signs of constipation:

- Fewer bowel movements than usual;

- Hard, dry stools;

- Difficult and painful when passing stool; and

- Stomach pain/abdominal discomfort and crying during bowel movements.

If your child has these symptoms, she may be constipated. However, if she has a bowel movement every two days and as long as the stool is soft and is not difficult or painful to pass, she is not constipated.
