Poop (or not)

Dalin is getting a little too smart for his own good. He has realized that mom & dad put "stuff" in his juice and has started to refuse to drink it. Well, that "stuff" is what helps keep him regular, and so has been dealing with constipation issues for a few weeks now. Finally on Monday night, after a week of not pooping, and refusing to eat a chocolate Ex-lax, I called Dalin's OT and asked her for suggestions. She always seems to be able to come up with something that works. We decided I'd send his "stuff" to school and they would sneak it into his drink at snack. It is working well so far and they are able to bribe him with gummi bears when he doesn't want to finish it. Sometimes it is hard as a mom to think that someone can do it better than me. I am struggling to learn that it is okay to not be a super-mom and do it all. It's okay to ask for help.
