Off and on Paizley has been having trouble with wetting her pants. I thought she was just being busy and waiting too long to go. The other night she wet the bed and when I was helping her change out of her wet clothes I noticed that her urine really smelled. She went a little more in the toilet and it looked cloudy to me. I started to get nervous that she had a urinary tract infection. They have home tests that you can do now. I had one from a previous bout so I pulled it out and tested her. The sticks have two pads on them, one for Lucites and the other for nitrates. The Lucite one turned dark purple but the other one was negative. I didn't know what that was suppose to mean so I made an appointment for the pediatrician the next day.
They also tested her pee and said it didn't look like she had an infection. The doctor decided she needed an x-ray, Bah! Luckily they have one in their office and they determined that she is constipated. I was given a sweet ten day Exlax, Miralax regimen to clean her out. I'm glad I'm not the one home with her during the day because it sounds like it's going to be tons of fun.
