This may be the worlds stupidest question...

But is there any way to 'move' a bowel movement :dizzy:

Once DD (2yrs) is awake, that's it for sleep in this household (well for her DS who she visits on her way up to us, and me....DH somehow manages to sleep through it or ignore it entirely :rolleyes:)

The last 3 mornings she has woken between 4 and 4.30 and had a dirty nappy about 15 mins later, so I'm guessing that's what's waking her. Would be okay if she then went back to bed (cause she is still tired) but she got put back 4 times this morning...so our day started at 4.30 :dizzy:

I know it's unlikely (don't imagine you can really change a body system that much in a 2yo), but any theories most welcome!

I'm not sure, but try to work out how long it takes her to 'process' (feed her corn :laughing:) eg 12 hrs after dinner = 4.30 am

Then try prunes with porridge or prune juice earlier in the day, for brekkie etc. see if it cant get her moving earlier. (and extra water, can help too)

without overdoing the prunes of course, or you may regret it!:D

good luck!

Thanks Nex - it might just be worth a try (pass the clothes peg please :laughing:)

Only thing is there's usually 2 (ie lunchtimish as well as the early start)....but anythings definitely worth trying for the extra sleep :thumbsup:
