Constipation

Poor Damien is having constipation. 2nd time now n his last poo was on Fri before the swim gathering. N it was also using the enema. This time I waited until today which is almost a week before I finally used the dreaded E.
Hmmmm....wonder what else can I do to make him poo other then using the 'E'. Have tried all the methods that I know of n stopped his Hienz rice cereal as its the thing that supposedly triggered the constipation. Have tried apple, prune, pear juice, n puree apple, pear, banana n even fed him papaya. He jus couldn't do it.
Damn the stupid poo is so resistant. N made my nights miserable becos Damien couldn't slp well too. Was even cranky in the day when we went out. My cheerful little baby must be feeling so terrible too.

N I felt so bad when I was on the phone with his PD when she asked me 1 qns. "He didn't poo for so many days isn't he grumpy?" The 1 little qns hit me so hard as it made me think of how Damien was suffering n all his mummy was thinking about is avoiding using the E again. N made it worse for him by dragging n dragging hoping he can do it himself with having to use the E.....sigh
Think I should jus heed his PD's advise n use it for this period as she said this is the transition period for his intestines. Its okie to use as he is not relying on it. Once the period is over he will be fine again. Lets jus hope n pray that this is the last time I need to stick that thing into his butt again.
