Poo Poo...

Daryl had not been poo pooing since last Thu! This morning when we woke up, we saw that Daryl is straining very hard to try & poo, but no success. Thus I told Asty to boil some china barley for him. She replied that she had already done so. I was very impressed! This is called initiative! Am very glad that she had done it.

After drinking the barley water, Daryl tried to poo a couple of times again. Still not successful. When I checked his diapers, I can see the poo at his butt hole there. It's just that it can't come out. Poor Daryl...

In the afternoon, when I was on the phone, I heard Daryl crying very loudly. I quickly ended the call & rushed to see what had happened. I saw Asty carrying a naked Daryl & Kel trying to pull out his poo in the bathroom. Kel said Daryl tried to poo again when he was having his bath. But it was not successful again. His poo is stuck at his butt hole there & it wouldn't come out. Daryl cried even harder when he saw me. He reached out & wants me to carry him. He even call Mama... It really broke my heart when I saw that. I carried him & he went to lay his head on my shoulder. I told Kel that we have to bring Daryl to see Dr Chua to get the medicine for Daryl to poo. Seeing how distressed Daryl was, Kel agreed & he went to change.

On the way to Dr Chua's clinc, Daryl actually fell asleep during the short journey!This shows how tired he was!

At Dr Chua's clinic, he gave Daryl babylax in his butthole. When I put Daryl down, he cried again. When the medicine was deposited into his butt hole, he cried even harder. Poor poor Daryl... My heart really broke then! Once done, I carried him up & patted him. Luckily he was soothed by my patting. Dr Chua told us to give him more water as he thinks that Daryl is not drinking enough water. I made a mental note to tell Asty about it.

When we reached home, Daryl tried to poo poo again. After a while, I went to check on his diaper. I saw that he had poo out 3 small round pieces of very hard poo. I told Kel about it. Kel told me to wait for a while more for him to finish his poo pooing. I replied that it's better to wash now so that he'll not kena diaper rash. Dun wan 2 add on to his discomfort now.

While washing him, we saw that Daryl is straining again. Thus Kel sprayed water into his butt hole there. Daryl then poo out 4 more pieces of hard poo. After that, we saw that he was trying to push out a bigger piece. As it's already out, Kel went to pull it out. OMG... that piece of poo is huge!! The width is equivalent to the width of 3 of my fingers!! No wonder Daryl was in such pain!!

After the washing up, I went to pat Daryl to sleep. He fell asleep almost immediately. Poor boy! After all the hard work, he deserved a good rest.

It was 6pm when Daryl woke up. He had been sleeping for 3 hours already. When he woke up, he didn't cry, which is a very good sign! I went to take a peek at him. When he saw me, he gave me a very big smile. When I saw that, I knew that everything is okie already.
