my daughter's pediatrician switched her to Similac soy isomil because she is constipated. but I read on WebMD that it causes constipation bc of the extra iron in it. She screams when she goes to the bathroom and it is really hard and her little bottom is so red and sore and she sounds like she is getting a sore throat from crying so much. my nerves are shot. I just want my baby to feel better. should I switch pediatricians?
@supermom1104, I tried BF but didn't produce anything 😥
the gripe water made her tummy feel better but didn't make her go.
@kristinamarie_1996. I will have to try the sugar. brown or white? and since she's only 3 weeks should I only give her 1oz?
our pediatrician told us to give our 2 month old 2oz of sugar water in the morning and 2oz at night. 1 tsp sugar per 1oz water.
I just gave my daughter gripe water for the first time the other day and yes it does help with the fusiness but it gave her the poops BAD. :(
we tried both karo syrups. I will try some gripe water. she won't let my husband or I put her down. poor thing won't sleep either.

gripe water will help with her crying it may even help her poop it helped my daughter
I mix baby prunes in my daughters bottle every now and then and that helps her
yes. and we tried karo syrup and prune juice. we put the karo in warm water and her formula and the prune juice in her formula and straight and everything makes her projectile puke everywhere.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
TWW!!
2dpo and on the tww journey. Anyone on the same dpo or close? Haven't decided if I will test at 12dpo or just wait and see if she shows up!!

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
have you tried the qtip with petroleum jelly and I tried something once with my LO that my mom suggested and it worked, the little inch of skin before her butthole when she's pushing trying to force out poop you can push down on it..I did it once just because my baby wouldn't poop and I didn't know what else to do I felt so bad for her..but I did that and she immediately had a diaper full, sometimes they just need a little help.
