tashabear01 You definately could use Colace (docusate sodium). The usual dosage for children between 6-12 is 40mg to 120mg daily. I am assuming that you have the 100mg capsules (that is the only strength it comes in here). Make sure you do not give it within 2 hours of...

tashabear01 Well I am a woman, and I wear my watch on my left wrist and so do most women I know except for one who broke her left wrist once so she just got used to wearing it on her right wrist & still does.

tashabear01 I have lost weight from walking and cutting out the "bad carbs" and replacing them with a better carbohydrate choice. Don't get me wrong if I wanted chocolate or chips I would eat them just not the whole bag or the whole bar, I would share and I wouldn't do it...
