WARNING - This post is not for the weak stomach.
So the last couple of days Rachel had been having some constipation issues. So since we had been to the doctor a few weeks earlier she told us just to make sure that we use Miralax to help Rachel not get plugged up. Well she had been flowing very well so Scott and I weren't to worried when we missed a couple of days in a row without giving her any. DUMB DUMB mistake. Poor little girl got plugged up again. So we tried to get her to eat some prunes and drink prune juice but she wasn't willing so we had to really start the Miralax like the doctor said. Well finally after two days of doing this she finally started to get the hard poop out but just in little spurts. We had taken her to Kammi's house and Kammi told us that she had started to flow and Kammi had changed 5 diapers. Well as we were sitting there talking with Kammi Rachel ended up with another diaper full. So we got home and changed her. Scott and I had to attend to the fact that we thought we had a leak in the ceiling and so while we were doing this I could hear Rachel actually grunting to get the poop out. (This is completely unusual for her because she likes to go hide and not be looked at while she does this). So just before we left to go to dinner I changed her again and this time I was completely shocked to see a poop the size of a plum in her diaper. 1. How did she get that out? 2. I can now see why there was so much noise getting it out. Anyways so we headed to dinner. Well that big poop was the begginning of what was to come. We made it to dinner and she had pooped again in her diaper. Well just before we left I went into the bathroom and changed her again. We decided that we would go over to the Verizon store and see what they have for phones. Well again within 10 minutes her diaper was poopy again. I didn't think anything about it because we thought well we can talk to them and then we will just go home. Another DUMB mistake by the parents. I picked her up after we were in the store for about 15 minutes and that was when I realized there was pooping coming out of the diaper. So I hurried to get the diaper bag and asked to be lead to their bathroom. We ended up having poop everywhere. It was a complete and utter explosion. We had poop on the pants and on her shirt. It took all the baby wipes that I had to get it cleaned up plus some paper towels.
SIDE NOTE: I just have to say that it was my jinxing us because I had seen a friends post on Facebook where their child had pooped and it was all the way up the back to the hair and everything. I thought to myself boy I'm so happy we haven't ever had that happen. So see I totally jinxed us.
So we left the bathroom with Rachel in a diaper and her shoes. When Scott saw her he was like oh I guess we need to go home. I said yep we do. So Rachel and I went to the car where I wrapped her in a blanket since it was raining outside and cold. At one point on the way home she was crying again and told me: "Mommy make it stop!" I felt so bad because as I had changed several of her diapers she wasn't even able to hold the poop in it was just flowing right out. I know it wasn't very fun for her but we were happy that at least she is flowing again.
