How to Relieve Your Toddler's Constipation; Here's How I Do It...

I feel your pain. I know you haven't had any sleep for days, and you are worried about your little one. You're thinking, "Will I have to resort to an enema again?" Ugh! I get it. I have a two year old, who is perfect in every way, except one...he has an awful digestion system. It seems like this has been going on for him since the moment he was born, poor guy.

In addition to the monetary losses, the strain unemployment put on our relationship was intense. But, after FIVE years, we are very slowly, moving to a better place in our lives. In 2009, my husband lost his secure, professional position that allowed me to work from home while caring for our first son. While we were blessed with a supportive family and friends, the last five years have been incredibly difficult on my husband and I. At first, we didn't believe that his losing
