Hey Girls,
Anyone else ever had a baby that doesn't poop? History: SHe had two meconium poops at the hospital the day she was born, and then one 'real' poop on day 4 when we were home...then went 11 days without anything so I took her to the doctor (not my pedi, just the doc at the local clinic) and she gave her a suppository (which I know now wasn't the thing to do...she isn't at all constipated, her bowels are totally empty) so she had one poop because of that and then nothing since (that was a week ago) I know it is probably due to not getting enough milk (or enough 'calorie rich' milk) and that her body is using everything else she drinks...but the doctor is concerned and is telling me to supplement her. I am going to wait one more week and check her weight gain again at her appt. on monday, and if she isn't gaining adequately I think I am going to have to start pumping after each feeding and giving her the extra...hopefully that will give her a little more and get those bowels in action. Just thought I would ask if anyone else had any experience with this or advice. Thanks!
