On a completely different topic my sweet baby is constipated! She has been fighting her poor GI system for 5 days now! Do you know how awful it is to sit and watch your little baby grunt and turn red in the face and break out into a sweat and shake and cry from trying to poo! The poor thing in the most intense moments would stand in the middle of the living room leaning against my shoulder with her arms around my neck and just SSSTTRRAAAIINNN! So Sad!
Suppositories didn't work very well and I cant get the kid to drink much juice or eat any prunes to speak of. So this has been a serious battle! I tried mixing it in her formula and hiding it under her favorite food but she is SMART! She can tell the difference between the color of juice in her bottle versus milk! No lie! She wont even let us get close to her with a bottle of juice!
Oh my poor stopped up baby :o(
I am off to sweep the bathroom floor and pretend like I am going to mop it when I am done.

Oh, we had that problem with Elise for a long time! The solid suppositories don't work well, but the liquid glycerin ones worked much better. Her dr office recommended those and they were great. You could also try putting extra water in her formula, but my experience was that once they are constipated like that, juice doesn't do much anyway.
1) enjoy the boredom now. once annelise hit the state of mobility, my boredom went away. i never imagined i would have to choose between a clean house and keeping my kiddo entertained. the time has arrived.
2) annelise has such bad constipation issues. prune juice usually helps, but then we go through days of trying to get her regular again, if you know what i mean. hope this sorts itself out for you!
Look how adorable she is with her baby doll! I loved that she chose to kiss a baby doll before she kissed any of us!
So sad how misguided you are! Naptimes are not for SCRUBBING! They are for reading, or some other peaceful self-indulgent pastime, silly girl!
The photo looks like she's trying to help the baby have a good poo - PUSH!
