my son had problems.. water helped some.. and the best thing was a q-tip dipped in vaseline.. you push it in a little and it helps relieve some of the pushing. My dr. told me to give my son also baby stage 1 prune... just a small spoonful at night. it worked like a charm.. he started prunes at 2 mo. old. i know it sounds young.. but it helped ... good luck...
