Prune Juice...FAIL

Abby is typically very....er, "regular" when it comes to her diaper business. But this past week she's been skipping days which is concerning to us. So her doctor recommended we try a little prune juice mixed with little bit of water to see if we can get things moving. So I got two different types - one regular prune juice, and one "baby" apple/prune juice. I first tried to give her some on Saturday morning. And how did it go?

FAIL.

She outright refused it. Got one taste and gave me a horrible "yuck Mommy" face. So I tried to get smart and mix it in with an ounce of formula. And how did this go?

FAIL.

She wasn't having any bit of it. So then I tried to get even more brilliant and put the juice mix in a medicine dropper and "force" her to take it. I'm pretty sure of the 2 ounces I tried to feed her...1.75 ounces she spit out on her bib. UGH.

Today, we did finally successfully get a teaspoon down her by adding it to her full bottle.

That girl is smart. And knows what she likes and doesn't like. Oh boy.
