The Poop on the Poop

Our 2 year old has had normal brown poops since starting him on GAPS about 4 weeks ago.  He has had diarrhea and lots of undigested food in his diapers all of his life since starting solid food.

Our 5 year old has had her first normal poops since starting her on GAPS about 4 weeks ago.  She has had tummy aches and chronic diarrhea all of her life.  No more tummy aches!

Our 8 year old has always been prone to constipation and had some normal poops at the beginning of Intro and is now constipated again.

Our 11 year old has had normal brown poops for 5-6 days now.  Today he had 4 normal poops.  He has had tummy aches and chronic diarrhea all of his life.  No more tummy aches!

I have always been prone to constipation.  I am struggling with it during intro.

I find it interesting that the 5 and 11 year old who have always had the tummy aches and diarrhea are the ones who fall apart emotionally.  Our 8 year old and I have always struggled with constipation and we are the ones who tend to get frustrated and angry.  Do you think there could be some sort of connection?

Most of the kids are doing great today, but our 8 year old and I, who are constipated, had an awful day!
