Agree with above. Need to get to the root cause of why they're getting constipated. I notice when my kids going to Grandma's and eat junk/pizza/more dairy than usual they all come back constipated. So we know to give them prunes around that time. Also make sure they're drinking enough water. I also try to mix in chia seeds with their food as they're full of fiber!

Constipation in kids...we need HELP! -
Working Moms, how do you find time to workout?If I don't do it in the morning, it's not happening and sometimes when it doesn't happen, it's ok! Being a mom IS a workout (lol) so give yourself some grace. This morning I was getting the kids ready for daycare, eating my breakfast and doing squats. It's not ideal, but right now that's all I can fit in with my work life.
It's not a workout, but we've started to take family walks after dinner. It's not as great as a cardio workout, but it's still nice to get some movement. -
March babiesMy daughter was ready to go, but my son was not. They weren't march babies, but my daughter was mature enough for her age whereas my little guy has some room to grow.

Favorite Seed Oil Free Snack/Foods/Salad Dressings?Siete Foods is an amazing brand and is a grain-free brand and also uses avocado oil with their chips. Love all of their products. Thrive market also has some great options. We only use coconut oil, evoo, avocado oil, ghee, beef tallow for all of our baking/cooking. Any time it says seed oils in a recipe, I just swap out with avocado oil. We also try to make most of our foods. This is difficult with us both working and 3 kids, but I try to make ahead and freeze when I can. But we're not perfect. My kids love Dominos and Chik-fila so we try to live by the 80/20 life (lol)! Also primal kitchen has good dressings and Chosen Foods has good mayo. Just Ingredients on Instagram has a ton of swaps!

Biting at daycareDon't laugh, but when my oldest was 2 she was a biter. So I bit her finger (not hard) and explained that it hurts when we bite so we do not do it. She didn't like it, but also never bit again.

HemorrhoidsSame girl! It made it's appearance with every pregnancy. If you eat well, good fiber, hydrate, and exercise you can keep them at bay. Caution with wearing thongs too! Haha. It can definitely irritate it.
