My Darling's Constipated

After receiving a call from PIL in the middle of the night squealing that Jamie's been crying non-stop because her stools are stuck at the anus, unable to come out or go back in. We immediately rushed over and brought her to the hospital for help. I remembered telling Fion that while the whole world is asleep, the A&E is the most happening place to be at.

That poor girl... constipated to such an extent. The doctor inserted medication into her anus to soften her stools. And we hung around the Children's 24-hr clinic till her stools are soft enough to be passed out. I've experienced countless times of constipation and i certainly know how painful it can be. But for Jamie at 7 months old... my heart aches.

Her ordeal was finally over and it was already 4am in the morning. She was exhausted and fell asleep on the way home.

Now, how the hell did she get so constipated? My analysis...
1) She never had such problems when I took care of her.
2) She never had such problems when my mom took care of her.
Then, why are her stools so god damn hard?

I found out after this episode that my mother-in-law has actually been cooking porridge with some fucking pig internal organs and feeds Jamie twice a day. KNNBCCB! I don't know what else to say. Pig's internals such as the liver, kidneys might be good for low-blood peeps like me 'cos they are rich in iron. However, excessive iron in our bodies can also cause constipation. See my point?

Whoa! 不要 long 我生气..

Anywayz, Jamie's now passing motion better than that fateful night. She can now sing, ramble... or whatever.
