No Poop, No Eat

Froggy hasn't been eating. We decreased her laxative by a smidge, and I mean a smidge, and she stopped pooping for three days. She started poopin' again but... for a week, her appetite has been nil.

So today we meet with her doc at 8:30am for an x-ray. If she's blocked, we'll probably be admitted. I'll post an update as soon as we're home. Hopefully, we'll be home soon!

Here's hoping for poop! Hopefully the doctors can get things moving quickly. Max had similar issues when he was a baby and I can remember being so scared of the what ifs, worried because he wasn't eating and then feeling soooo relieved when he'd finally poop, and poop and poop!

movement -- lots of walking especially -- and no food for a while can get things moving again...

Avoid foods such as rice, bananas and cheese (they slow down/stop the gut).

I say this as someone who has been hospitalized several times for blockages (due to such things as spinach and rice).

Good luck Froggy!
