Our health visitor came by today and said that little Jake was suffering from constipation. This accounts for his restlessness and bouts of crying. I was beginning to get a little anxious because he has not pooed for several days. We made an appointment with the doctor in Hilly Fields and she diagnosed the same condition. Because he is so young she hasn’t prescribed any medicine. Just 2 fluid ounces with his feed to get things moving.
He has just had his water and is having a sleep. I never thought I’d say it but I am wishing for the pooiest nappy ever when he is next changed! The poor little mite. We have some visitors coming in half an hour or so so I am just going to pop down to Costcutter to get some juice and cakes.
