Secondly, I agree wholeheartedly with Lili above. Please get *plenty* of rest, naps, etc., whatever your body needs. I'm sure it's an adjustment, but your family will learn to fend more for themselves until you're feeling better. You must take care of yourself first, and help them as you're able. Take care, Carrie, and know that many of us are thinking of you and praying for you! God bless, sweetie!!FancyFreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02260999843671514464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6161763037661446985.post-72105646447770256072013-02-18T09:20:35.446-08:002013-02-18T09:20:35.446-08:00You have permission to take a nap every day, or to...You have permission to take a nap every day, or to sleep All Day. Hope things go better tomorrow. Miralax is a good laxative. I think you might need a prescription. Nothing wrong with using a Fleet's enema if you have to. They have kid's sizes if you just need a little help. Prunes help. We are all thinking about you. Don't worry about us. fondly, AnnNutbirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06582321253031488710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6161763037661446985.post-81828512843830609692013-02-17T19:30:53.478-08:002013-02-17T19:30:53.478-08:00I confess - I was worried.

Ask Though. I think it needs 30-60 minutes to work. <br>Get Glycerine Suppositories to assist with the plumbing for use if everything else fails. <br>Sheila - EscanabaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6161763037661446985.post-40755019180076103292013-02-17T16:00:07.958-08:002013-02-17T16:00:07.958-08:00Hi Carrie,I'm glad that the first week is now ...Hi Carrie,<br>I'm glad that the first week is now behind you. And now you know what to expect for this next week, at least.
