Lemons

One of my babies Latesha has had runny poos for a few days, she will be 1 next Friday and this morning I was cooking and had quarter of a lemon left, so I gave it to her thinking she wouldnt have it but she is sitting on the floor sucking away on it and loving it. Then I thought have I done the wrong thing in giving it to her?

Thanks Abbey. Latesha loved her lemon didnt even screw her face up like the poor little babies in the video

I was just concerned it would irritate her runs.

I wouldn't worry about it. But to slow up the runs you might want to feed her some bananas.

Its her first lemon dont think I would make a habit of it but that information is good to know as their teeth are very precious, thanks:)

Let her enjoy this but not on a regular basis. Lemons are very high in acid and can do damage to growing teeth. Might be a little hard on her stomach as well. But one won't her at all.

I always used to do the BRAT thingy - Bananas, Rice and Toast (I can't for the life of me remember what the A is for, but anyway it does the trick and should make her bum feel a tad better and your nerves a little easier.

A is for applesauce. The BRAT diet does work good.

Anyways, my grandson is 2 1/2. He has been addicted to lemons for over a year now. His big summer treat is going to the fair or carnival and having fresh lemonade and then eating the lemon.

Whatever stops the poopies is allright in my book.

A little bit of regular canned pumpkin (NOT the pie filling with spices)

will help either the poops OR constipation!

(It's a miracle food!!)
