mama Syasya, Syasya skrg umur brp? Apa ada keluhan lain selain pup jarang?
setau saya bayi ASIX ngga perlu pup tiap hari... Diego sejak 3 bulan pupnya 2-4 hari sekali. kl kakaknya Kayra dulu sempet seminggu ngga pup, trus dikasih suppository, saya lupa namanya apa...bentuknya agak cair mirip salep/lotion. DSAnya bilang mesti tunggu seminggu baru dikasih itu & ngga boleh terus2an...
setelah baca2, ternyata beda bayi beda kebiasaan... ada yg sehari bbrp kali, ada yg sehari sekali, ada jg yg sampe bbrp hari cuma sekali. menurut Mayoclinic (http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/infant-constipation/AN01089):
"Infant constipation is the passage of hard, dry bowel movements — not necessarily the absence of daily bowel movements.
Don't use mineral oil, laxatives or enemas to treat infant constipation.
If your baby is struggling and it's been a few days since his or her last bowel movement, it might help to place an infant glycerin suppository into your baby's anus. Glycerin suppositories are available without a prescription. They're only meant for occasional use, however, if dietary changes aren't effective."
jadi biasanya konstipasi mulai menyerang bayi yg mulai makan MPASI. Krn itu treatment terbaiknya sbenernya memperbaiki pola makan. Kalo baby ASIX biasanya jarang bgt konstipasi, terbukti kan pupnya Syasya ngga keras dan sbenernya bisa pup sendiri jg...
o iya, tentang penggunaan sabun, atau biasanya glycerin, sbg rectal laxative, saya malah kuatir kl nantinya jadi ketergantungan... termasuk jg takutnya ada iritasi di sekitar anus bayi...
ini ada precautions seputar penggunaan laksatif (http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/drug-information/DR602369/DSECTION=precautions-):
Do not use any type of laxative:
-if you have signs of appendicitis or inflamed bowel (such as stomach or lower abdominal pain, cramping, bloating, soreness, nausea, or vomiting). Instead, check with your doctor as soon as possible.
-more often than your doctor prescribed. This is true even when you have had no results from the laxative
-if you do not need it, "to clean out your system," or as a "tonic to make you feel better."
-if you miss a bowel movement for a day or two
ttg ngeden pd bayi menyebabkan ambeien/wasir... belum bisa bantu... tapi (CMIIW) biasanya kasus infant hemorrhoids ngga banyak ditemui...
observe aja dulu mam slama bbrp hari tanpa sabun. kadang bayi suka keliatan ngeden tp belum tentu krn pupnya ngga bisa dikeluarin... :)
