Nikki, thats terrible you had to wait so long for the refferal and it sounds like it took them to see it for themselves first, even though he has had such a sore bum. I tried Lucas on the coloxyl drops too, all it did really was make it worse as he'd make all the sounds and movements and be in pain but nothing would come out. Bummer there is a 6 week wait for the paed. Do you think they could give you advise over the phone on what the paed recommends for infant constipation? You could check first to see that his records have been sent over. Lucas had really bad constipation when he was 6 weeks+ and like I said the Duphalac that our paed recommended was the only things that stopped it. DF and I, and this is going to sound funny, but we agree that during the time he was constipated, was harder for us than when he was in NICU after major abdominal surgery(probably because we were alone and clueless on what to try next). So I definately understand what you guys are going through and I hope you get some answers soon.

Have a great weekend everyone.
