Tonight is going to be a long one. Hope is straining like crazy and nothing I do is helping her, she keeps waking herself up by straining and then gets frustrated and starts whinging which then means I pick her up to comfort her. I wish the doctors would listen, as i'm sorry, but this isn't normal! She strains like crazy, but then when she does have a poo, it's like water so I don't understand why she is straining so much! Had to put her over a towel earlier without a nappy on and massage her tummy to try and help her have a poo, which she did, but now she's back to straining again.
@daniluvsdis hope has been changed to lactose and gluten free milk due to allergies, the rest of the symptoms have stopped apart from that one!I put gripe water in her bottle and have tried colief and infacol too, neither seem to help! thank you for your advice though! xx
@nessie95, I ended up changing to comfort milk, used gripe water and gave him a few baths a day! The comfort milk really helped him!xx
@daniluvsdis that's the thing though, the majority of the time, when she has a poo, there's quite a bit of it, but she can go a few days so I try to massage her tummy daily to try and help her. xx
@nessie95, I was told when Harry was constipated but having tiny runny poos that sometimes a constipated poo can block the pipes but a tiny amount of liquid can squeeze past if they're straining so much! Xx
@chesscalouise2 no, not tried that one. problem is, it's not constipation because she's still having runny poos, but she still strains like there's no tomorrow! x
@chesscalouise2 yeah I have hun as recommended by the doctor, literally nothing works. x
how are you massaging her hun? they do say softly massage yor lo but u dont have to be that soft. try and make also bycicle moves with her legs. rub her tummy in circles .thenn press from left tummy towards belly button then right towards belly button. do each set 12 times and then u pick her both legs and pressem against her tummy. do this untill she farts. if she starts getting too upset while u do it .stop doing it and just have your hand placed on her tummy(break time) also having a dummy while doing this helps soo much as they relax and still use their muscles through the sucking x

is it wrong to be frustrated that my daughter acts like she can't do certain things with out my help. she plays dumb a lot and I wish I could be like no girl show what you know. she acts like she can't trace or match shapes so shes ask for "mommy finger" to help her so I barely hold her hand and she magically can do it but if I dont hold her hand she just scribbles and acts like she doesnt know
the pic is how she traces when I'm "helping her" otherwise it'll just be scribbles all over the page
I hate my generation sometimes ?
Today was my nieces baby shower, which went great. She got so much which amazing since she's been working 2 jobs trying to save up for the unpaid leave she'll have to take from work. Anyways I was talking to one of the ladies there since my son and her daughter were playing together. I asked her what her daughters name was, she said it was Layla. I told her that's a really pretty name and asked her if she was a Clapton fan and if she was named after the song. Th...

Ok so there's this girl that won't leave my man alone... She's a crazy ex and I want to know what I should do.... It's like she does thing purposely to taunt me and I can't beat her ass bcuz I'm pregnant... No matter what he does our says to her she won't stop.... This is her...I swear y'all it's taking everything in me not to get her beat tf up!!?
So idk if I’m an asshole for thinking this but a girl I used to go to school with is having her 3rd kid and she’s planning a baby shower and she had one with her other two. I feel like a baby shower is something you do with ur first pregnancy. I live far from my family so I didn’t have one but i did have a baby registry and I’m not even doing that with this pregnancy. Idk I just feel like 3 baby showers is a lot! Especially when she gets things handed to her. Idk maybe I’m an ass for thinking that
@nessie95, I gave the gripe water to him just from a syringe! It seem to warm his tummy up, it helped us! Every baby is different though! Poor thing! I feel your pain it was horrendous!
At one point we ended up at the Drs and he gave us lactulose which also helped!xx
