๐ Read what this amazing momma has to say about Shelbyโs struggle with extreme constipation!
โShelby was not p**ping on her own. We got to the point where she would only p**p when we did her 1x a week suppository. We had to take this approach since she ended up in the emergency room, since she didnโt p**p for almost 3 weeks. She hated them and wouldnโt lie on her back without hysterically crying. ๐ญ
We knew this wasnโt good since her body was relying on it, but we were worried she would go weeks again. When we were hitting the 1-week mark, she would start puking and wouldnโt eat. I had IUGR when pregnant with Shelby, and she was born small, and her not p**ping affected her eating drastically, so she wasnโt growing enough.
She would get extremely irritable and was so fussy. Her tummy was constantly hurting. Our lives were stressful and overwhelming, to say the least, at this time. Knowing your child is in pain and nothing we were doing would help was too much to handle. ๐ฃ
We felt like we were in this never-ending cycle and going nowhere. We tried every doctor and everything, and nothing worked. I came across PX Docs on Instagram, and they just posted about constipation. I thought, why not give it a shot. ๐
A little over a week into her care, is when she p**ped on her own! We were sooo happy! We were told it could take a bit of time, and she responded very quickly. It was amazing! From that point on, I knew this was the answer. I truly donโt know what we would do without PX Docs. They changed our families' lives for the better, especially Shelbyโs, of course. Shelby is finally thriving and showing her sweet side, which we knew was there but was hidden by her constant discomfort.โ โค๏ธ
