Constipation is a very common problem in children. A child is considered constipated when he or she has fewer than three bowel movements in a week; has trouble having a bowel movement; or when the stool is hard, dry, and usually large. Diets high in processed food, cheeses, white bread and bagels and meats can cause a child to become constipated fairly often. In babies, constipation can happen as they move from breast milk to baby formula or from baby food to solid foods.

Some children get constipated because of irritable bowel syndrome. IBS can occur when a child is stressed or eats certain trigger foods, which are often fatty and spicy. A child with IBS may have either constipation or diarrhea, as well as stomach pain or gas. While constipation provides discomfort to a child, it usually isn’t a cause for great concern. In rare cases, constipation is a sign of other medical illnesses; so talk to your child’s pediatrician if your child continues to have problems.

Generally, signs of constipation in children can include:
• going less than usual
• having trouble or pain when going to the bathroom
• feeling full or bloated
• straining to p**p
• seeing blood on the toilet paper

Constipation is easy to avoid by adopting healthy eating and exercise habits. Parents are encouraged to give their children more fluids, serve more fiber, make sure kids get enough exercise, develop a regular meal schedule and get kids in the habit of going to the bathroom.

Please, take time to educate yourself about Constipation in children.

Did you know that 79 million Americans currently have HPV and many people don’t even know they are infected?

Cervical Health Awareness Month raises awareness about women protecting themselves from HPV (human papillomavirus) and cervical cancer. HPV is the most common transmitted disease and is also a major cause of cervical cancer. Women are advised to get the HPV vaccine and get regular screening test (called Pap test), which can detect abnormal cells early, before they turn into cancer. Most deaths from cervical cancer could be prevented by regular Pap tests and follow-up care.

The HPV virus and infection usually cannot harm an unborn child, nor, affect its development. During childbirth, the risk of HPV transmission to the baby is very low. Even if babies do get the HPV virus, their bodies usually clear the virus on their own. In very rare cases a baby can develop warts in the throat. This condition is called respiratory papillomatosis and may require frequent laser surgery to prevent the warts from blocking the baby's breathing passages. Depending on the extent of the warts, the doctor may postpone treatment until after childbirth.

Please, take time to educate yourself about Cervical Health; connect with and join like-minded families, groups and organizations for additional support.

Did you know that most birth defects happen during the first 3 months of pregnancy? One out of every 33 babies in the United States is born with a birth defect; estimating 120 babies are born with a birth defect annually. Many children show problems of developmental origin with time, e.g., 6 to 7% by one year of age and 12% to 14% by school age. Birth defects can affect almost any part of the body and can affect how the body looks, works or both.

About 10% of problems seen at birth can be traced to a specific agent (environmental agent, drug, biologic, or nutritional factor). About 20% are inherited or are associated with chromosomal changes. The remaining 70% are of unknown etiology.

The medical costs of care for children with disabilities resulting from birth defects have been estimated to exceed $1.4 billion annually.

While all birth defects cannot be prevented, women can take preventative steps to increase their chances of having a healthy baby by managing health conditions and adopting healthy behaviors before becoming, and during pregnancies.

Pregnancy is an exciting time and taking care of yourself gives your baby a healthy start in life!

Please, take time to educate yourself about Birth Defect Prevention; connect with and join like-minded families, groups and organizations for additional support.

We extend a special “thank you” to the youth of New Life Covenant Church, S.E. – Identity Team; the youth joyfully committed their time to book wrapping for this cause. Afterwards, we enjoyed peer-dialogue that motivated the younger children prior to enjoying pizza donated from Chicago's Pizzeria UNO . Appreciation also goes to Stephanie Hondras, wrapping instructor and Al Brown, photographer.

I was excited, along with my children Brittany McCray and Bryant McCray to personally meet members of the Child Life staff departments, and deliver the 100 character building books with read-along CD's to Comer Children's Hospital at the University of Chicago, La Rabida Children's Hospital and Shriners Hospitals for Children during this Holiday Season.

August is Spinal Muscular Atrophy Awareness Month!

Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) is a motor neuron disease that affects the voluntary muscles that are used for activities such as crawling, walking, head and neck control, and swallowing. SMA is a relatively common "rare disorder" occurring in approx. 8 out of every 100,000 live births, and affecting approx. 1 out of every 6,000 to 10,000 individuals worldwide; about 1 in 40 people are genetic carriers.

(SMA) refers to a group of inherited diseases of the motor nerves that cause muscle weakness and atrophy (wasting). The motor nerves arise from the spinal cord and control the muscles that are used for activities such as breathing, crawling, walking, head and neck control, and swallowing.

SMA affects muscles throughout the body. In the most common types, weakness in the legs is generally greater than in the arms. Sometimes feeding, swallowing, and respiratory function (e.g., breathing, coughing, and clearing secretions) can be affected. When the muscles used for breathing and coughing are affected and weakened, this can lead to an increased risk for pneumonia and other respiratory infections, as well as breathing difficulty during sleep.

The brain’s cognitive functions and the ability to feel objects and pain are not affected. People with SMA are generally grouped into one of four types (I, II, III, IV) based on their highest level of motor function or ability. http://www.fsma.org/FSMACommunity/understandingsma/WhatIsSMA/

Please, take time to educate yourself about Spinal Muscular Atrophy; connect with and join like-minded families, groups and organizations for additional support.

Daffodil Day is an opportunity for everyone to show we care about beating cancer. It is known to be the largest national fundraising event of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere. Funds are raised for the cancer research, prevention and support services.
