Constipation is common, treatable, and nothing to be embarrassed about.

It also hides well.

Tiptoes, stiff legs, or a sudden rocking dance can mean a child is holding, not pushing.

Once going hurts, holding starts, and holding makes the next one harder.

If it lasts more than two weeks or keeps coming back, call your pediatric provider.

Our article "Constipation Can Hide in Plain Sight: Seven Clues Parents Often Miss" is on the Mission Pediatrics website, MissionPediatrics.com.

Our Redlands office is lit pink this week for the Believe Walk, with a light show set to "Fight Song" by Rachel Platten.

The marquee says it best: We believe in hope.

Dr. Watson and the Mission Pediatrics® team are standing with the families in our community touched by cancer.

The 19th annual walk is Sunday, Oct 4, in downtown Redlands.

Pre-walk festivities start at 6:30am and the walk begins at 8am at 1 E. State St.�

Get to know our amazing team!

Meet Angelica Ceja, though everyone calls her Angie! She's our front lead at the San Bernardino office.

Angie checks patients in and out, answers the phones, verifies insurance, schedules appointments, and helps families work through whatever questions they walk in with.

She also leads the front team, which means making sure the day runs smoothly for staff and providers alike.

Her favorite part of the job is when she helps a patient and they walk out happy and thankful.

Outside of work, Angie is into puzzles, cooking, and getting outside with her family.

And growing up? She was happiest playing outdoors, right where you'd expect to find her.

See you at your next visit!

It's National Comic Book Day.

Around here we're partial to the kids who show up brave for a shot they were dreading.

That's the real superhero move.

Who's your kid's favorite?

Fall officially starts tomorrow, but let's be honest, it started the second the pumpkin spice showed up.

Ninety degrees out and moms everywhere are ordering it hot.

We respect the commitment.

Ahoy.

Talk Like a Pirate Day is tomorrow, but we've never been good at waiting.

Fair warning to any parent within earshot: your kid is about to say “arrr” roughly four hundred times this weekend.

You're welcome.

Get to know our amazing team!

Meet Yosselin Ascencion, one of the first faces you'll see at our Jenny Lind office in Redlands!

As a medical receptionist, she handles scheduling, greets everyone with a smile, and checks patients in and out.

Her favorite part of the job is getting to be part of the impact this practice is making in the community, and watching kids light up when they pick something out of the treasure chest!

Fun fact: Yosselin has never broken a bone.

See you at your next visit, and don't forget to check out the treasure chest!

Hispanic Heritage Month starts tomorrow, and it runs through October 15.

So much of what makes the Inland Empire feel like home comes from the families, the food, the music, and the traditions being celebrated over the next month.

We're glad to be part of this community.
