Unclogged!
Posted in Katie on 09/19/2007 07:56 pm by debbie_kaKatie finally pooped!! Six days….
This morning I tried to get a doctor appointment but they couldn’t fit me in until tomorrow morning. In the meantime, I left a message on the nurse/doctor line so that I could actually talk to someone about it. By 1pm I still hadn’t received a call so I called again and they said I would receive a call back by 2:3opm. But I didn’t.
We couldn’t wait any longer so both Pish and I did some research online. Some sites suggested prune juice so my dad went out to buy some. My mom diluted one ounce of prune juice with two ounces of water. At first Katie drank it but quickly realized it wasn’t milk. But my mom tried again and she drank two ounces of it. An hour later she had her normal milk and an hour after that it was an EXPLOSION. My mom said the poop was liquidy, greenish-yellow and smelled REALLY bad. Thanks for cleaning her up mom!
I think we all felt better that Katie finally got it out. Hopefully she’ll be back on her regular schedule from now on.
We are pretty disappointed with our doctor’s office. Later we found out they left a message on our home phone but I clearly left my cell phone number twice and this wasn’t the first time that they hadn’t called us back. I think it is time to say bye bye to the Irvine Pediatrics Group. We’ll be looking for a new pediatrician that is more reliable.
