Constipated Baby

She no likey. She was miserable and so uncomfortable, and I felt so helpless, because it appeared that I couldn't do anything about it.

What worked: 

*Gerber fruit puree`- prune and pear
*Prune juice - diluted
*Baby suppositories courtesy of my sister-in-law

What would have worked had I the good sense to try it:
*Warm bath and massage
*Thermometer with tip dipped in vaseline to free up goo
* Water substitured for formula

Egads! Five days was a long time. She was relieved and so was I.
