To the poop withholding parent – my son is 2.5 and I’ve been giving him 1 teaspoon of benefiber in his juice every day since January and now he goes almost every day. When I forget a day, I do find that he tends to get backed up for a day or 2 though.

After my second pregnancy, I was diagnosed with severe postpartum preeclampsia after delivering via planned c-section at 39 weeks. I’m nervous that this may happen again if I decide to have another child. Would delivering at 37 or 38 weeks decrease my chances of postpartum preeclampsia (assuming it doesn’t occur before then)?
