Potty Trained Child Had Certain Small Potty Accidents, Fixed After Getting A Prune. Wakes At Night For Potty Now. What To Do ?
My four year old daughter has been potty trained since she was two and a few months ago she started having small potty accidents so I took her to the doctor there was no physical reason as far as UTI so after a little research I thought constipation was the problem so she was getting a prune everyday that seemed to fix the problem, but no she is right back to doing it again it happens probably 3-4 times a day never at night she gets up in the middle of the night to go potty I'm at the end of my rope and don't know what to do. Please help.
