ZEB is 6 1/2 and his 'pooping problems' began about 10 months ago;
I was assuming that playing outdoors and not wanting to come inside/playing his play station and not wanting to stop for a bathroom break/kindergarten looming before him...etc. Zachary was disganosed with sensory integration dysfunction in Nov. 2007 and has been in OT & PT since that time, however;
his encopresis is now full blown. In speaking with his physician he suggestion constipation and and x-ray was taken - slight constipation was the 'diagnosis' and suggested an over the counter laxative. I am becoming overwhelmed............help, please!
