Teething

Second tooth appeared today after a night from hell!  When ever you feel your baby is just misbehaving, remind yourself...  at this age they always cry for a reason!  Poor wee soul.

Constipation and teething

I started solids and be warned!  Constipation follows something terrible.  I followed the recommended rice cereal advice as a brilliant first food, but it has its draw backs.  Don't hesitate to introduce purity prunes.  I learnt to late!  After many glycerine suppositories and the prune pulp we have a happy baby again.  Mix the prune pulp in the porridge, I am going to do it every second day and see how it goes.  So distressing to see her cry with pain trying to pass a stool.  If I had only known.....

P.S  She cut her first tooth today!

Yours in mothers trying their best
