Your 5-month-old: Week 2

How your baby’s growing:

Your baby may start showing signs of one of her first major emotional milestones — stranger anxiety. She may become clingy and anxious around new (and even familiar) people and may cry if a stranger suddenly approaches her.
Keep this in mind when you’re around people she doesn’t know, and try not to be embarrassed when she cries in someone else’s arms — just take her back and calm her down by holding her yourself. Tell your friends and family to approach your little one with slow, gentle movements.
A case of stranger anxiety doesn’t mean you have to avoid new faces. Your baby will benefit from being around people other than you and your partner. Just remember that she needs your patience and understanding to get through this very important stage of development.

3 questions about: Constipation

How will I know if my baby’s constipated?
There’s no such thing as a normal number of bowel movements per day. When — and how often — your baby moves her bowels can depend on when and what she eats, her level of activity, and how rapidly her body digests food. Constipation occurs when stool backs up in the intestines, either delaying bowel movements or making them hard for your baby to pass. Your baby may be constipated if any of the following is the case:
• Her stools are hard and dry or have blood in them.
• Three or more days have passed since her last bowel movement.
• She shows persistent discomfort when moving her bowels.

What causes constipation?
If your baby is being fed only breast milk, constipation is rare. Talk to your baby’s doctor if her stools are hard, dry, or painful: When combined with other symptoms such as vomiting or a swollen tummy, this could indicate a more serious condition like a blocked intestine.
If your baby takes only formula, the particular brand she’s drinking may not agree with her. Ask your doctor about switching brands.
If you’ve introduced rice cereal to your baby’s diet as a first step toward solid foods, the cereal could be the culprit — it’s low in fiber. Try adding pureed fruits such as pears or prunes (not bananas, which are constipating) or vegetables to the cereal or switching to oat or barley cereal instead.
Constipation can also be caused by dehydration, so giving your baby more fluids can help. If your baby’s already eating solid foods, try giving her some prune or pear juice. You can feed her 1 ounce of juice diluted with 1 ounce of water, or add the juice to her bottle of formula or pumped breast milk.

How can I help?

Aside from making changes to your baby’s diet, here are a few more tricks for getting bowels back on track:
• Wiggle your baby’s legs in a gentle pedaling motion while she’s lying on her back.
• Gently but firmly massage her belly below her navel. If you feel a firm area, keep a steady pressure there for a few moments.
• If you see her straining to make a poop, place her in a warm-water bath to relax her muscles.
• Use a glycerin suppository or stimulate her rectum with a rectal thermometer lubricated with petroleum jelly as a temporary measure, but only with the doctor’s approval. If the constipation doesn’t respond to these interventions, the doctor may recommend a baby laxative.

Oh ya.. after Daphne change her formula milk to Snow… now… her past motion is back to normal i guess.. hmm.. today she did pass motion.. and her stools are not hard.. just nice.. actually this morning… after she awake.. i wanted to bring her to pee pee.. so i just bring her to the toilet and let her pee pee… end up.. she poo poo.. hahaha.. this is the first time i see her poo poo in the toilet.. kekeke.. after poo poo i continue help her bath bath… hehehe…  phew… this is the first time i help her take bath that early… almost 8am in the morning ;) hehe.. just in case i forgot… later she gonna drink milk around 10:45am… my memory getting worse.. hehe.. so i have to write it here just in case.. ;)
