yay! max is "moving!"

His bowels are moving that is...and I couldn't be happier!

I know, what a weird thing to post about but I literally had tears of joy today with all the "movement!" :)

With his change in diet recently, Maxwell has been dealing with some MAJOR constipation issues and nothing was working. He was in a lot of pain and was quite miserable. I have been having daily conversations with his nutritionist and then met with his doctor last week on this issue.

With adding a lot more fluid to his diet, eliminating certain foods and trying new medications...we finally got things going! Woo hoo!

He had FOUR today...I think he is doing a little colon cleansing and feeling pretty darn good this weekend.

(Constipation seems to be quite an issue in some CHARGE kiddos, as well as any kiddo with a Gtube. It can be very frustrating.)

I am so excited to see Max happy again!
