Any mamas have experience with their LO having constipation?
My poor baby has had such bad gas pain// ever since coming home from the hospital. She is formula fed and being a premie the NICU gave her DR Brown bottles and neosure with iron formula. When she was 3 weeks her pediatrician gave me a list of things to try..gripe water, massages, bicycle legs, warm baths, loving and cuddles and probiotics. I tried everything then finally the probiotics worked for 4 whole weeks and my LO was finally sleeping thru the night, loved her carseat/stroller rides, and was all around a different baby..she still had lots of gas but it was much more tollerable for her. Well recently i noticed the pains came back like 3 days ago, & Monday after a bath around 2pm was her last poop (noticing this tuesday morning)..she didnt poop for almost 24 hrs (atleast 20hrs) and her pediatrician said that i can go ahead and try giving her a few sips of baby gerber sugar free applejuice dilluted with water and nook it in the microwave if she goes past 24 hrs but wanted me to try a suppository first and then applejuice IF the suppository didnt work. Well i am scared to death with sticking anything up her butt at only 8 wks old and me being a FTM with no practice or experience. Well to say the least that little bit of apple juice helped her poop yesterday once.. then she slept great last night..no pain or strain but no poop either. Today the pain and strain came back about almost at 24 hrs of her pooping. Does anybody have any experience with their LO and constipation?
