Welcome to Camp Funk

too funny not to share

I just had too....

this little man has been smiling like crazy lately 

but he has been inconsolable the next minute

he has had non stop diarrhea for almost 2 weeks

and since Saturday he has been screaming throughout the day like he is in some serious pain

we already did a round of stool samples last Friday

nothing showed up

so we went back into the Dr. yesterday and let me tell you

I was so thankful my mom offered to come with

it was a crazy morning already but having her there was a huge help

Odin and Jeremiah were with too

We got there by 8:30 and I fed him and then they checked him out

the whole time he is laying on the table laughing and smiling

within an hour of us being there  he started screaming until his face was beat red

his little lips quivering and his back totally straight with his legs straight as a board

I couldn't even bend his legs

 they needed to get an ex ray

so I sent my mom to target with the kiddos to get Jonah's birthday gift(it was the only day we could do it)

by the time they got back  we were done with the ex ray

it makes me laugh some of these people in the waiting room that have the nerve to say things to me when he is screaming his head off

I was (Gabe was really)aggravating some people I guess

on the other hand

the nurses kept walking by and would stop and rub his head and say how cute he was 

 I just kept walking up and down the hallway

we got back into the room and went over the ex ray

all is good

so we need to take more pooop samples but try to catch the poop before it hits the diaper

I started to laugh thinking

how am I going to do this

should I put a funnel under him or what

 she told me to use syran wrap in the diaper and then just poor the poop out into the vials

then she also wanted me to change the formula  for 2 days and come back today and check him out.

so has anyone ever used syran wrap in a diaper?

how funny is this going to be was my first reaction

so my gracious mom applied the first coat 

I couldn't stop laughing

Gabe had the funniest look on his face

 it kind of worked but there wasn't much poop and it was so liquidity it comes right out of the sides and onto the diaper

so we kept trucking along at this procedure and got what we could

(mind you my wonderful brother and his 2 kiddos came yesterday for a visit)

I needed a lot so by the time I went to bed last night it was accomplished

the other thing the Dr. asked me among the  gazillion questions was

how does he sleep?

 great during the night...no screaming at all

he only gets up 3-4 times which he has always done

a light bulb moment occurred

he rarely eats during the night, he just needs to be re situated and that's it

BINGO!

It is clearly digestive issues going on

As soon as you feed him within an hour he is screaming like a mad man

sooooo say a little prayer for our little monkey 

I hope that it is something simple

thanks for being part of our daily adventures!
