GI visit

TMI warning....just sayin'

Today we took Olivia to the GI to find out what is going on with her pooping and Encopresis.  The doctor was wonderful and thankfully pretty humorous.  Of course I cried because I feel like a horrible mom that can't get her kid to poop.  But he reassured us that this is very common and fixable.  We discussed lots of things that we had done, what the pediatrician told us to do etc.  So finally after her exam which he found that everything was functioning normally, he gave us our plan.  It is pretty simple and a stop at Wal-Mart on the way home made it better to start today by picking up a few things.  I won't go into detail of the plan because I am not a doctor and you should not do things our doctor told us to do for our child to your child.  But today it worked and she pooped on the potty.  We had to "call" the doctor and tell him, I made a pretend phone call and that seemed to work! But we had success on day one so hopefully it will continue! But we learned a lot today about poop, but it is always good information to know!

We always get happy for poop on the potty no matter where she goes!
