Constipation...

Last night before Leland went to bed, he had a fever and was very fussy. I rocked him to sleep and put him down. Not his normal nightime routine. He always goes down with no problem. I am blessed in that sense! About 2 AM, he woke up with a blood curdling squeal and I rushed in his room..his poor little belly was hard as a rock and he has gas. So I laid down with him in his room and held him. Gave him some tummy drops and tylenol because he still had a fever. Around 4, he was still crying so I took him to Josh and ran to CVS..the one time I do not have PRUNES in the house my poor pumpkin needs them =( They don't have any!!! UGH....so I get some prune juice and he won't drink it. So I wait til 8am when Publix opens after I have called his DR and they tell me to get him some suppositories. He still hasn't really slept at this point, just cries and whimpers on my chest. So heartbreaking! I know that it horrible to say but he is so sweet when he is sick. I love that he just wants me to hold & love on him. Like only I can make him feel better.
But back to my story...lol, Josh & I give him the suppository. He did very well! But after a bit he has a little poopie. So for the rest of the day off and on he slept and loved on me. I couldn't really get him to eat anything. He still hasn't really had a good poop, but hopefully one will come soon!
His DR did piss me off this morning when I called, she informed me that babies don't have to poop everyday, sometimes they go every few days. I INFORMED her, that I know my child and he poops 2/3xs a day and it has been 24 hours and he is in PAIN. What can I do to make him feel better since this is the first time I have dealt with this???? I am sure my Mommy friends would not have liked me calling them at the crack of dawn for advice!
So anywho...obviously Leland did not go to daycare today. I don't think I am going to take him back. I know I have already paid for him to go next week, but I can't stand the thought of him being there 2 more weeks until I can be home with him.
I did talk to my boss yesterday and told him that I didn't want to work full time anymore that I wanted to stay at home with Leland. He said he admired me for putting my child before my career! aww...he is such a great guy. But after talking for a little while, I am going to work VERY part time a few nights a week. I will no longer be at Chanel though which makes me sad. But I have to do whats best for Leland. So I am now going to be working our new Cosmesuitical lines that we have in. With my background doing facials he thinks this will be good for me & them. So I am open to the idea. Excited actually, I will still get to be home with my baby and a few nights a week when Josh gets home I will be at work ;)

SOOOO..now that everyone knows about my poor childs poop issues I feel better getting it off of my chest! But I guess thats what blogging is for!
Hope all is well!
Love, Mama LJ xoxo
