I help my little guy eliminate at each feeding (4-5 times daily).
He squeals and squeals and squirms.
I'm using a soft piece of warm wetted tissue and gently rubbing his lower abdomen while holding him up so he pees/poops downward.
I'm also doing this after he eats, so it feels like he has a full little belly.
He pees great, but the poop doesn't come as easily. It's soft, lightly formed, and there's not too much of it.
Is this normal? Is there a better way?
Maybe he just doesn't like being held up? Should he be on his back? I'm sure his Mommy wouldn't be holding him up...
Thanks much.
Sarah
