I have never in my life been so happy to see a full diaper....Lil Miss Ellie has went 3-5 days ( i really lost track of time, so honestly don't know) with not pooping....and lotsa smelly gas!
Gabe never did this....he is Mister Consistent daily with his poo. So it was a whole new experience for me massaging the sphincter muscles of my poor little girl. I knew something wasn't right when she started fussing after eating the last couple days....as she has been the most content baby ever. It was so unlike her....so yesterday Mom did the dreaded duty I didn't want to do....she demonstrated the how and what.....but nothing happened. So this afternoon when she wouldn't settle down for her afternoon nap I thought maybe I should try again. She seemed so happy after I used the rectal thermometer....and I was so stinkin' scared I was gonna get poo flung in all directions...what a funny sight ;) But did she poo? Nope? But went right to sleep....so I have no idea what I did, but 2 hours later she woke up from her nap laughing and talking and filled her diaper to the brim....Hallelujah! I was a dancing crazy mama!!!! I pray Happy Poopy Pants returns again tomorrow!

I've had this struggle with Kinley a lot. I've almost cried a few times watching him struggle to go poo. I did use karo syrup some in his bottle and milk. Seemed to help. Hugs . . .
