Ok, so this blog is all about poop, so if ya don't wanna read it...stop now.
Kate has been having some issues in the poop department the last few weeks. She has become increasingly irregular and it has caused quite a bit of concern as of late. Last week, she pooped on Thursday and then again on Sunday. Then she pooped the next day Monday and hadn't pooped by yesterday. So, I called the doctor...because she had almost stopped eating too. The doctor suggested that I do a rectal glycerin suppository to help her out. Thankfully, Kate doesn't mind getting her temperature taken, so inserting the suppository wasn't a problem. I got it in...and then waited. I expected to wait and wait and then clean. I should've taken a picture of her room...I draped all areas with blankets so that when her poop shot out, I wouldn't be cleaning the walls. I honestly thought she'd blow through her diaper and spray the walls...but that didn't happen.
No more than FIVE MINUTES after inserting the suppository...I stood up to fold laundry (Kate was on the floor in prime pooping position) and I heard a rumble like I've never heard before...and then...sweet sweet relief! Success!
So now, she's getting prune juice for the next few days to keep her movin' and we'll be all good!
Have a great weekend!
