Constipation

Aimi had constipation last week, thanks to Mama's new menu rice porridge with potato, carrot & too much anchovies. Doctor said, maybe too much carbo. (rice + potato)

Kesian Aimi, meneran bagai nak rak tapi tak ada pun poop yang keluar.

Two days constipated, we brought her to the clinic to get some medicines. Ada yang oral intake, ada one more macam tube with liquid to be inserted into anus and squirt.

Once the doctor squirted the first tube, Aimi instantly make her pooping face. But with no luck, nothing came out. Kesian, sampai dah nangis-nangis.

After one intake of the oral medicine that night, Aimi got better. The next morning, her stool was not as hard as the one before we went to the clinic.

So now, I have changed the menu for her to bring to the nursery.

For the first day, I cooked rice porridge with 1:2 ratio of white:brown rice with no additional vege.
Brown rice is known for its fibre & vitamin B.
And I steamed 2 apples in the microwave and blended to perfection for her snack time.
I squeezed some blackcurrant and put them in the some-kind-of-fruit-holder for her to chew on.

Her stool become softer after 1 day.

Today I made her rice porridge (same ratio as day 1) but with very little carrot.
I blended the steamed apples with a little bit of carrot too.
Not forgetting the blackcurrant for her to chew on.


Let's see how.
