UPDATE BELOW
today has been 9 days since my baby zoey has been sick . its really been killing me inside not knowing whats wrong with her . from taking her to see the doctor from diffrent hospatil's being told diffrent reason on what was wrong with her . i have been misinformed about what has been going on with her . zoey spen 4 days in the hospatil with out a clue to what was wrong with her the first day they toke some blood , xray , and urine . the blood and urine were fine but the xray showed she was very constipated so as they night went on by for day one in the hospatil all they did was give her something to help her go potty she was in so much pain that she wasnt eating anything and was crying for four days while i sat there asking them to please find a reason why she is in so much pain . yesterday they sent her home when all she ate was brakefast and still wasnt her self . today i had enough of just watching my baby girl suffer in pain . i toke her back to the e.r and they day another xray . and the reason for all the pain and days with out wanting to eat was because of being constipated it was so bad thats why she had been vomiting . they helped her use it but see needs to see a (g.i) doctor . i am hoping i can see that doctor soon . tonight she is doing well but i pray that tommrow she will eat and wont be in any pain . they said her poop was inpacked in side her some of which was soo high up so what they give her may not get everything out . so i give her a does of this med that helps her but the only thing is it takes 2 to 3 days to work . its soo hard seeing my baby girl this way . this is why i think she fell off the chart as befor she had always been on the chart . as things go along i will keep everyone updated . thank you all for you prayers and support it means alot to me . please keep praying for her to recover quickly i want my baby girl back to her self i feel so sad inside seeing her like this i am thankful that i listened to my gutt because i called the docs and they were telling me it wasnt anything to worry about but inside me i knew that there was .
=[

Friday, 22 Aug Hi Girl!
I just wanted to let you know that I grew up myself with this same problem. I was hospitalized as a child because of it. My son was born with the same constipation issue. So far my daughter is okay.
I know that we always had to give my son the Karo Syrup (SP?) in his water. That always seemed to help keep him stay regular. Also made him eat baby food prunes although he was no longer eating baby food. Now that you know about your daughter's problem is the big first step. You can now keep track of her BM's and try to give the syrup or other options to help. irene s -

Tuesday, 19 Aug Hey honey, hope you are doing ok. I cant believe the hospital dont give her a suposotory or some medication to releive it the poor little thing is probably so scared now she cant go. I know you have had a good few suggestions which sound great, i find orange juice and grapes good too, maybe she like any of these, or cereal with bran.
Keep me posted honx alwayshopeful -
Monday, 18 Aug Praying for Zoey, hang in there sweetie. Like the others said, I think prunes, prune juice, apples, apple juice and pediasure are your best bet, along with increasing her fiber intake. Cut up some apples everyday for a snack and lots of water. Hope it helps :-) cbowling -
Monday, 18 Aug Hey Liz, Zoey is in my prayers. Try feeding her high fiber foods for her constipation. Apples and apple juice seem to help my kids. My pediatrician advised me to give my daughter pediasure to help with nutrition and weight gain. She turned 4 in January and only weighs 32 pounds. She is underweight according to the charts but the vitamins in the pediasure keeps her healthy. Take care hun!! Cheryl -newnaam -

Monday, 18 Aug Liz I am sooo sorry to hear how sick Zoey is. I can imagine how hard that is. I've only had to deal with dehydration with my daughter once and she had to be hospitalized and that was too hard for me. I can't stand when my baby is hurting or in pain. My thoughts & prayers are with you and little Zoey. I sure hope she gets better fast and she gets back to her little self again.

This is for Zoey! :0) Take care hun. siyain -

Monday, 18 Aug hey hun I am so sorry that zoey is still feeling bad. Have u tried warm baths (i know u give her baths) but maybe try to give her extra baths or not even a full bath but just put warm water in the tub or warm rags on her belly it might ease the pain a little. I really don't know what else to say. Is there anything that u can give her that will make her have diarehha (sp) so it might break up and make it easier for her to go. Well let me know when u can and I will continue to pray for her.
