ATTENTION: exhausted Parents
When nothing seems to fully resolve your child’s constipation, clarity matters.
A private space for parents who are done guessing and want to understand what their child actually needs next.

Before you go any further—pause here for a moment.
Most parents who arrive here have already tried a lot and are still unsure what actually matters for their child.
That uncertainty isn’t because you haven’t done enough — it’s because when constipation has been ongoing, multiple factors often overlap.
When that happens, guessing, tips, and “next things” usually stop helping.
This space isn’t designed for troubleshooting in comments or collecting more advice.
It exists to help parents get clear direction so they can understand what’s likely contributing — and what kind of support makes sense next.
Start by noticing which of the following sound familiar.
Does this sound like your child?
✔ Constipation has been ongoing (weeks, months, or longer)
✔ Poops are painful, large, infrequent, or inconsistent
✔ Your child avoids going, withholds, or is afraid to poop
✔ You’re relying on laxatives, fiber, clean-outs, or “maintenance”
✔ Things help temporarily… then stop
✔ More than one issue is happening at the same time
✔ You feel unsure what actually matters anymore
When these are present, it usually means the situation needs to be walked through — not guessed at.
What This Approach Is - and Isn't
This community is built on a different way of thinking about child constipation — one that focuses on why the body gets stuck, not just how to make it go
Non-Medical
Non-Invasive
Non-Traumatic
Safe for All Ages
Long Lasting Solutions
Miralax
Magnesium
Lactulose
Restrictive Diets
Supplements
This contrast isn’t about doing things “right” or “wrong.”
It reflects a different way of approaching long-standing constipation — one that focuses on understanding why a child’s body is stuck, rather than managing symptoms indefinitely.
These stories look different, but they share one thing in common: clarity came before change.

What families see once they get clear direction
"Highly recommend this"
"We have hit a milestone in this program. We were able to have my daughters cecostomy tube removed due to Nicole Liammari and her day in and day out (sometimes night) dedication to us.
** Note: YOU DO NOT GET THIS MUCH DEDICATION & DAILY COMMUNICATION FROM YOUR GI DOCTOR ).
Not even close.
I am still in shock that someone like her and her program were able to HELP US. The trauma doesn’t have to continue, she’s amazing and I just have to share how happy I am with the results we are receiving. I am Just giving hope to those reading this, that there doesn’t have to be a prolonged daily struggle of trauma and constant thinking about how we are going to get our kids to poop, there is a solution." - Courtney
"The moment Rootin’ for Poopin’ was mentioned to me by our family doctor, we jumped right in."
"The moment Rootin’ for Poopin’ was mentioned to me by our family doctor, we jumped right in. My two year old son started to show signs of constipation and withholding for a couple of months, and after dealing with the same thing with his older sister- I knew we couldn’t wait long to figure this out.
My 5 year old daughter started to withhold when she was 1.5 and we went through gut testing, extreme diet changes, used high doses of magnesium, multiple doctors, enemas… we did everything for two years and it was exhausting and traumatic. Things eventually resolved as she got older and she thankfully has no more issues.
So fast forward to her brother now showing the same signs and my anxiety was next level just thinking about all we had went through… I just knew we couldn’t go through that AGAIN.
I called our family doctor to ask a question, and she wasn’t in so another provider answered my question and ended up sending me here! And I’m SOOOO glad they did!
We’ve been in the program since January/February, and within the first month his poops were considerably softer. A little bit after that he’s self-initiating poops in his pull up, and now after months of consistency, I’m so happy to share that he has officially pooped on the potty for 3-4 days straight with no struggle! (Just in time for his 3rd bday next month!)- B.G."
"Pooped with NO TEARS ( off all poop helpers)"
"My almost 4 yr old just told me he needed to poop, walked to his bathroom & pooped with NO TEARS for the 12th day in a row now!!
There were so many days that I thought this wouldn’t be possible. We were in the trenches with MiraLAX, Milk of Magnesia, tears, and even 12 days of no bowel movements which included an overnight stay in the hospital.
In the early days of this program there were plenty of tears still - from both of us. But I’m so thankful for the pep-talks and suggestions from Nicole and her team that got us thru to the other side!!! So thankful for this group and program.
To all the other moms in the thick of it…you’ve got this!!! Don’t give up!!!" - Shiloh
"I'm incredibly grateful"
"I'm incredibly grateful for Nicole and WellieWay (fka PrimalRoot Wellness). Thanks to her program, my daughter, who has struggled with digestive issues since infancy, is finally experiencing relief without the need for Miralax or other medications. Despite 12 years of countless doctor visits and trying every remedy imaginable, not one person ever mentioned actual healing until we found Nicole. Her approach is different; she doesn't just mask symptoms but focuses on addressing the root cause and facilitating true healing. Within days of joining her program, we saw amazing results. My daughter's digestion has been normal and consistent ever since!I can't thank Nicole enough for the positive impact she's had on our lives.
It's been a life-changing journey, and I'm forever grateful for the difference she's made." - Christy
"Within a few days of working with Nicole, my daughter was off MiraLAX and pooping every day"
"I would like to start by saying how truly blessed I am to be working with Nicole Liammari and her team. My daughter has struggled with constipation since she was 18 months old. Her doctor had us put more fiber and Miralax into her diet. Nothing seem to have helped, and the amount of MiraLAX my daughter needed seem to have increased overtime.
She is 3 years old and was taking half a cap of MiraLAX a day. Within a few days of working with Nicole, my daughter was off MiraLAX and pooping every day. Nicole’s program has not only helped my daughter’s constipation issues, but has eliminated the fear of going potty, impacted my child’s mood in a positive way, and has provided resources and knowledge to better understanding gut health." - Emily
If you’re recognizing your child in these stories and still feel unsure what your next step should be, that’s exactly where clarity begins.

More children thriving
He is finally living his life and not planning around the bathroom
"I just wanted to take a minute and thank Nicole and her team. My son is 17 and has struggled since he was 4 with severe constipation. Initially I didn’t know any better and followed the doctor’s solution to just give him Miralax. And it worked - for awhile. But he hated it and so did I. And so began our over a decade long journey searching for something better. A that point he was taking so much Miralax it was almost half a bottle each day. Many GI specialists later and he was put on Lactulose. It worked, but was so violent in emptying he would be forced to spend a full day at home near the bathroom. Just what a teenager in high school wants. It was heartbreaking to watch him plan his life around when he would go and he started limiting to once a week. I refused to believe this would be his reality and searched for an answer. We tried anything and everything. Supplements, probiotics, prebiotics, drinks, home remedies - you name it. Nothing worked and we felt so defeated. Then I found Nicole and her team through another Facebook page. From our first meeting we both had so much hope, which honestly felt like a miracle after all these years. It took work and trial and error but he is now going regularly on his own without meds or supplements. He is finally living his life and not planning around the bathroom. I still struggle to understand why he suffered all these years when the solution was really so simple. But at the same time I will be forever grateful we tried just one more thing and Nicole was absolutely the right choice!"- J.R
Daily, healthy poops without a bunch of supplements, medicine or poop helpers
"We graduated from the program this week after 3 months!! Nicole has helped my kids guts to be so much healthier, and it’s a long term solution, not a quick fix! If you have any hesitations about her program (I did!), I’m here to say just go for it. She will be there for you whenever you need it, and working with her, your child will be having daily, healthy poops without a bunch of supplements, medicine or poop helpers. I will also say if you feel like you’re too busy or you don’t have the money to go though a “program,” just consider how important and valuable your child’s health is (it’s priceless). Further, I guarantee you will spend way less money and time in the long run working with Nicole vs spending a bunch on various doctors, nutritionists, tests, supplements…I had my 3rd baby a couple weeks after starting this program and I was still able to manage it and see great results." - K.O.
Changes are small, but the results are huge
"I discovered Nicole and Rootin' for Poopin' while desperately searching for a solution to my 9-year-old son Brody’s constipation and encopresis. After years of trying everything—including a fling with Miralax, which turned my sweet boy into a tiny grumpy old man—we were at a loss.When I scheduled a clarity call with Nicole, she explained her program, and I signed up immediately. For the first week, I was nervous—wondering if we could do it or if I could convince Brody to make the necessary changes (hello, picky eater!). But now, just five weeks in, Brody is thriving—pooping like a champ, happy, healthy, and no longer the human equivalent of a clenched fist. Best of all, Nicole has helped him slowly wean off all the poop meds he was on when we met her!Nicole loves what she does, and it shows. If you're unsure, trust me—it works! The program isn’t some weird, restrictive thing. You won’t have to force-feed your kid kale chips or deprive them of their favorite foods. The changes are small, but the results are huge. I believe in Nicole so much that I’ve even signed up for myself and my older son, who also struggled with constipation.Nicole, you're an absolute genius! I love you, and I’d choose you every day—not just because you’ve changed our lives, but because anyone who can get a 9-year-old boy excited about pooping deserves a medal. I hope you have the best birthday ever—you’ve earned it. Thanks for everything, and may all your birthday wishes be as regular as Brody now is!"- C.C
Zero struggles with pooping since
"I can’t thank Nicole & her team enough for the amazing support and results we’ve seen! From day one, I felt so supported—whether it was through the online group or personalized advice. We learned simple yet effective strategies to tackle our child's constipation naturally. My child’s gut health has improved, and we’ve had zero struggles with pooping since. I’m so grateful for this program and the difference it’s made!"- L.M
Like a lightbulb went off
"I was at my wit's end with my daughter’s ongoing constipation issues. She was on medication for years, but nothing was working long-term and it was always something. When we joined Nicole's program, it was like a lightbulb went off. We learned how to address the root causes naturally and without relying on medications. The doctor never ever talked about anything Nicole did. My daughter is now regularly using the toilet and no longer depends on the medications or laxatives. It’s such a relief knowing we’re doing this the healthy way and it is not something that is not sustainable for a teenager!"- R.R
