Overcoming Constipation and Potty Training Setbacks—Together

Episode 10 – 

Welcome back to The Pediatric Playbook!

In this heartwarming and hilarious episode, I’m joined by my former client and now friend, Katie, as she shares her journey through her daughter’s constipation and potty training challenges. From tears at missed pool parties to celebrating bathroom breakthroughs, we talk about it all—including the emotional toll of working with the medical system, the decision to try enemas and suppositories, and the small wins that made a big difference.

You’ll hear what worked, what didn’t, and how her daughter came to love our “poop doctor” calls each week. We also touch on parenting, mental load, and the power of feeling supported during one of parenting’s most under-talked-about challenges.

✨ If you’re currently in the thick of potty training or navigating constipation struggles, you can book a consult with me through the link in the show notes. You're not alone—and we can figure this out together.
