Be careful what you wish for...

in Babies: 6 - 9 Months

DS started solids on Saturday night and hadn't pooped since.  I called his pedi yesterday, and they got back to me today and suggested that I take his temp rectally and that should encourage a BM...worked like a charm.  Four times.  He's had FOUR huge gigantic blow out poops.  I was gonna head out to run some errands, but now I'm scared!  Not so interested in being at the grocery store and him having another blow out. 

Oh, and hi! I'm moving up to this board a day early...can't believe this little man is gonna be 6 months tomorrow!!

    Yeah, DD2 has mastered the blowouts. We have learned to always have a change of clothes for her with us. However, there have been times that we have had to buy her whole new outfits while we're shopping due to poopsplosions. Best of luck! ;)

    Yessa.  Blowouts are the BEST No 

    DS was suffering from terrible constipation when we introduced solids too.  Now I give him a sip of 1/2 apple juice/water with his lunch.  Haven't had a problem since.

    We tried water and prune juice...honestly, for us, the thermometer was easier.  DS doesn't really do great with the cup, and won't drink anything from a bottle, so getting liquids down his throat that aren't BM is a frustrating situation :)  We're working on drinking from a cup now, so hopefully that will help!

    Emily is a blowout master too! I had her in her swing last night next to the dinner table while we were eating when we noticed her famous creation. Oh goodness it was awful! She ended up in the tub with her clothes on and the whole seat cover to the swing ended up in the wash. Making memories...LOL!
