I knocked out after PM+4 last night but caught him at PM+8 48. I reduced him from 2.8mm to 2.7mm (2.25u) this morning. I've been giving ~1/8 tsp miralax 2x a day. Can't say yet whether it's helping, will keep recording.
 
Nice catch :cat:

How was his poop the other day (2/3)? Did it seem dry at all? As long as it's not loose you can consider going up to 1/4t twice a day - For Jax, that proved to be too much - his stool got too loose - so we landed at the random 3/16th dose (one and a half 1/8 teaspoons :p). And remember to give a bit extra water (2t for each 1/8t miralax).

And if miralax doesn't help, a lot of people have success with pumpkin (you could use the two together and just watch the LB).

It was a hard one! I'll try 1/4tsp tonight and work down.
 
+5.5 is 67 so I think he's on the way down. I gave 1tsp MC now and put 1tsp MC for +8 in the autofeeder in addition to his usual 1tsp LC every 2 hrs. I wonder if I should've taken more of a reduction but I will wait a few more days and see how hard it is to keep him up.
