I have continued to give Anthony the maximum dose of stool softener each day. He finally had another bowel movement last night, five days after the previous one. We dealt with a related problem this morning, however, when Anthony soaked his bed rather than getting up to urinate. We have found that, as he becomes more constipated, he also has trouble urinating. To try to ameliorate both issues, we try to give him more water. Usually, if he doesn't go to the bathroom in the evening, we can still count on him to do so in the morning. I guess since he had a bowel movement last night, the extra water was too much for him. He still could have gone to the bathroom rather than staying on his bed. Fortunately, we are somewhat prepared for such cases, and keep a pad on his bed under his sheet. As a result, a small portion of the mattress was all that was affected this time.
