What happened this week...
- Lily had to battle some constipation. It was pretty emotionally painful for us to say the least, not being able to do anything about her pain. We had many suggestions to aid in her constipation but they were all futile. We were told to give her water, juice, rub her belly, you know...the usual. We called the nurse triage hotline to see what we could do and all she said was to insert 1/4 of a glycerin suppository up her butt and NOT give her water as it has no nutritional value to her. Well, during a crying episode we tried the suppository thing and it didn't work...at first. She kept on spitting out the suppository from her butt, but no poop! We tried it again a couple more times and the same thing happened. It wasn't until the fourth time of putting it in that all kinds of shit came out, and it was big logs for her bootyhole! After the few logs she expelled she started machine gunning little pellets...poor thing! After that she seemed to be ok but a day went by and no poop. It wasn't til the second day after suppository insertion that she attempted to poop again and it was a success! I don't think we have been so excited about poopy diapers until this day, especially it not being hard! Yay Lily! lol
