Poor Miss Madison

For those of you who do not know Miss Mady has been having some poopy problems and she has been constipated. You may say "She is too young", but according to our Dr I guess it is common. Children do not really develop normal routine bowel movements until they are 4-6 months in age. Miss Mady is going to be 3 months in 3 days and I hope this problem will clear up. Mady poops almost every 3 days, but this last time I think it was day 4 she had not gone. So, late Sunday afternoon she broke out in her bloody murder scream and I knew she was going so I rushed her into her room to wipe what she had then applied some lubriant to help with the next one. I forgot to mention that Danny was studying in the spare bedroom and came running out when he heard his baby girl screaming. I mean is was hard and poor thing was crying so hard and I do not blame her because it hurts. She was pushing so hard that her upper legs and pelvic area turned purple. She finally went one more time so I wiped her up and picked her up to console her. During this last poop she actually developed a fissure ( a little tare) so there was some blood, but very little. Then, when we both woke up from our nap Miss Mady had some yellow drainage coming from her left eye, just great a bacterial infection. I know she did not have pick eye because her eye was not pink.
Today, at 9 am I had to call the Dr to see if I needed to come in for her two problems and they said they wanted to see her at 12. The Dr said to keep giving the 1/2 water 1/2 juice but this time get the concentrated juice. Then, she looked at the anus and she did have the fissure at the 11 o'clock mark and she said to just put some neosporin ( do not know how to spell).
I really hope that her poopy problem will go away and she does not develop what I have. As for her eye I have to give some eye drops and it should go away and I am not too worried.
The weather is starting to get cooler and so she gets to wear new outfits for the winter time.
The rest of us are good and she just woke-up from her 1/2 night nap. So gotta go.

Poor baby. It's a daily learning process with babies, I'm telling ya. A friend of mine has had to (excuse me if this is too much to handle) help her daughter by digging it out. Yikes! The funny thing is we would only do these kind of things for our kids. Hang in there. I know how upsetting it can be when you see your baby in pain. Just wait til she starts teething.
