Emilia has not been able to poo on her own past several days.
We have inserted glycerin tips 4 times already so this time we decided to leave her wihout giving any stimulation but it's been more than 48 hours since the last poo. The last poo was not even hard or like pellets as I would expect from constipation.
I am worried there might be something wrong but all the docs and nurses say it's what babies do and she wil have her own pattern. She is so gassy too. Old man fart, actually. Loud and very very smelly. I could not have imagined this is how a baby girl would smell. Really stinky that I am embarrassed the nurses might think it was me who just polluted the air.
Emilia was born on May 31, 2011, at 25 weeks and 5 days in gestational age. She came home on October 21, 2011 after spending 143 days in the hospital. Today she's a thriving, happy baby who continues to amaze us every single day. This blog records the journey of our miracle baby.
