My poor baby is having trouble pooping. he's only 1 month and we haven't had any problems until recently. I feel so bad I've tried warm baths. leg excersizes, tummy rubs. not sure what else to do, :/ we have or 6 week appoinment tuesday, so I plan on asking then I just feel so bad because he looks like he's in pain.
My son has the same problem and they told me to use the rectal thermometer to stimulate him and I tried it and it worked in the matter of seconds!
My doctor had me stick a thermometer up my baby's booty just a little, only the silver tip part. With some sort of lubricant. Lotion or Vaseline or something. She hadn't pooped in 6 days. We put it in there for 5 seconds, took it out, and within 10 seconds she exploded until she was empty and then slept for 4 hours. Now she's back to normal. :)
thank you mommas!
