Hi Everyone,

Just thought i'd pop in and introduce myself and our little man. My name is April and our DS 'Bodie' was born on Thursday 27th December at 10:45pm weighing 7pound15.
He was born 3 weeks early, he's practically still supposed to be in my belly! His due date was 20th January.
We had a pretty traumatic birth, he got stuck at the shoulder so I had the doctor on the bed pulling him out with her bare hands which left me with a large tear. Bodie was blue and wasn't breathing when he came out so was rushed to special care nursery where he stayed for a week. During that time he was Jaundice so he was under the special lights for 2 days. When we finally got him home it was such a relief. He is going great now, he's being bottle fed but has had constipation. Does anyone have a remedy on how to get rid of constipation? My midwife told me sugar & water, but anything else?

Will be popping in here and the January babies thread as I was in the bellybuddies Jan 15th-31st thread, so look forward to hearing from you.
