Poop Talk
McKenna has been in and out of hospital quite a bit lately due to poop issues. One week in Springfield, home a week, one week Kansas City, home a week, a night back in Springfield...it's exhausting. They give enimas, hook her tube up to a bag of go lightly, let her pooh a unch then send us home.
This week we have tried really hard to get Mickey to poop without screaming at her, but sadly it usually ends with mommy holding an enima in her face and saying, "poop, or else you get bum bum medicine."
It's traumatic for McKenna. You can see how scared she is to go and she even is scared of the noise of a toot. She toots that little, and holds it all in.
The past few days we have found a game that seems to work. When McKenna gets poop out we laugh really loud and make try to make it as fun and funny as possible to show her she doesn't have a reason to be scared. It has worked for a few days, although today we were back to having small poops. Hoping we can keep her out of the hospital for poop issues again. Excited for the day she is potty trained and trying to not be discouraged that she is 3 1/2 and still seems nowhere close to wearing underwear.
