Have you tried baby food prunes or apples.

Prue juice does wonders.

If you have any K-y Jelly, apply some onto an ear swab or thermometer. Then gently insert it inside her rectum. Use enough KY to coat inside enough to make sliding of the feces easier.

I've done this before with my son when he was constipated and it helped move things along beautifully.

I've used KY because it was the slickest and the most lubricating lubricant there is.

I was told to buy KY just for these purposes because other things just don't work as well.

Try to hold her in the squat position while she is straining to poop, like you would if she had to pee in the bushes, this way her bottom will be well down and it make it easier to push.

Usual answer: put a glycerine suppository in her - or, if desperate, insert a sliver of plain soap up her butt (with lube). She might make a fuss about it, but it's safer than stimulant-irritant laxatives - either one will help her do a dooey in 5-15 minutes.
