Again, praying for poop

Mr. Max is backed up tonight, so we're praying for poop again. They feed him every 3 hours, and before he gets his bottle, they check his stomach to see how much milk is still in there from the last feeding. Tonight at 4:30, he still had 12 of the 15 mls in his tummy. It was partially digested, but not passing through.

The good news is, it was milky clear and not a green color, which would indicate something wrong with his bowels.

The milky color means he is backed up. So they tried to "stimulate" him to poop. A couple of times. But so far, no action down there.

We need poop!! So start praying people! If it doesn't happen soon, they may stop feeding him for awhile and give his body a chance to process things through. He surely won't be happy about that!

In the meantime, he'll have an ultrasound tomorrow to check his scrotum for hernias. We're hoping they find nothing, because a hernia means another surgery.

(look how cute he was under all those covers today, trying to keep his binky in!)
