Nolan's Legs

Nolan has been complaining about his legs hurting. At first he thought it was growing pains, but it seemed to happen at all times of the say and not just at night. He also started limping some, so we went to the doctor. We tested him for strep and it was positive. She said some kids feel pain in their joints when they have strep so we put him on antibiotics to see if that would fix it. Unfortunately it did not so we went back to the doctor. She ordered x-rays. After an hour doing x-rays (they did a ton of them and both Nolan and Olivia, who waited patiently in her stroller, did great during them) they found no masses or anything. They did however see a lot of poop and think he may be constipated and that is causing him to limp and for his legs to hurt. So now he is on a laxative and hopefully this will clear up everything. Its no fun to think something may be really wrong with your little guy.
