Yday was day 4. Lil Isaac only managed to pass out a little bit of hard stool on day 3. To prevent another bout of extreme constipation, we gave him a dose of lactulose and he was closely monitored for allergic reaction.
Again we don't know what helped but he moved his bowels 3x yday. The first time, he passed out hard stools. There was no hives but he was busy scratching in the night and woke up 2x instead of the usual once. Is it the lactulose? Nobody knows. Well, we are just glad that he poo poo.
This constipation problem must be resolved soon. His appetite for milk has suddenly increased and my supply is unable to meet his demand. He is clearing the miserable stack of frozen bm. At the rate that he is going, I think we will need to supplement him with fm pretty soon. Not that i am against fm but fm is well known to cause constipation for full bm babies. Round 2 seems to be starting soon. -.o"
