I feel like I am running out of options. The high fiber o’s I bought taste like dog food, she won’t eat prunes or raisins. The gnu bars from trader joe’s are disgusting to her. What can I offer my 7 year old that she will enjoy and that will be good for her digestive system. She is in pain when she goes to the bathroom and bleeds at times with bowel movements. Help me!
Oatmeal every morning – cooked from steel cut oats the night before, microwaved to heat it up.
I change it up with sliced canned peaches and cereal cream
On special occasions I put in a packet of mini-Oreo cookies and add milk
A hand full of blue-berries and maple syrup is good
A grated apple, cinnamon and brown sugar with milk is good.
Serve all of the above with a fresh sliced orange, make sure she drinks lots of water through out the day. Cut sugar, white flour, high fat snacks and introduce raw veggies and dip, whole grain breads or crackers. No cold cuts, limit juices.
Be sure she exercises everyday.
You are the mom, you make the rules.
