tien: elgin has the same problem. very bad constipation after taking porridge.
he had suppository inserted 1 week ago, after haven't pooped for 6 days, then he pooped the entire day, everywhere.
after that, he didn't poo again for 6 days, so doc gave me suppository to insert. I think i didn't do a good job, so the reaction was slow, 1 day later, and he has been shitting bit by bit.
looks like plasticine.
So now I'm giving him lots of fruits, ranging from pear, apply to papaya. some are heinz, some we just mashed it up. plus i'm reducing the porridge given, and no carrots (carrots more than twice a week may lead to constipation).
He's still passing out rather sticky stools. Sigh.
I hope I don't have to depend on medicine
