Poopage
We’re having poopage problems. He had a hard time getting anything out over the last few days. A small present on Saturday arvo and nothing since.
Today we have succesfully drunk around 30mls of water from a bottle. Let’s see if that helps a bit.
According to my book, the next thing to try is a little sugar in the bottle. Apparently sugar will affect the bowel to being to shift things along. Will see how we go over the next few days.

Hope things are moving along for Albert. We had a couple of constipated days here too, but got past them with a little more milk.

One a day since two days ago. Going for the third today. :) Never thought I’d be so happy to see and smell a stinky nappy!

Another thing that works a treat if you get backed up again is a few drops of lemon or prune juice in the bottle of water. My oldest didn’t go for 5 days straight at one stage - 5 drops of lemon juice in 100ml of cooled boiled water and we were totally sorted!

I am telling you, my poor kid doesn’t poop for weeks (usually 10+ days)We took her to the surgeon, the ER and the pediatrician who all said that it is ok. We now just give her a Fleet baby suppository if she gets uncomfortable. The prune juice gave her gas and made her cry….our poor babies!
