NOW they tell me.

All this time I’m focusing on parenting technique, when I should have been thinking about laxatives.

being nulliparous (and with limited exposure to others’ offspring) i have to ask: is constipation a common problem among children?

In a word, yes.

There is a reason for all that prune baby food.

From the moment they are born (and in some cases, including Kate’s, even before they are born), bowel movements are the focus of parents’ lives. Few things cause more household concern than a parent noting that their child has not had a bowel movement in several days.

I love the old ad! I have an entire cookbook from the 30s put out by procter and gamble as a marketing piece. Everything AND I mean everything has crisco in it!

As for the whole poop and children. Unfortunately from birth it is the focus of a parents life.
