Poop Talk Friday

FirstSchatz

Maybe this will become a new segment....?

Anyways, I have a poop question!  Lately we have noticed that Logan is pooping at LEAST three times a day - literally morning, noon and night.  Sometimes more often.  They're not runny, or hard, "strange" colors...  in fact, each poop is just like his poop has always been.  They're just very frequent.  Is anyone else experiencing this?  Have you heard of this before?  Would you take your babe to the doctor?  He doesn't seem unhappy, he's eating lots, playing, crawling around, starting to walk, babbling lots, and getting plenty of sleep.  He's had a cold this past week, but the poop thing has been happening longer.  My internet searches haven't turned up anything but talk about newborn poop and one site that mentioned cancer, so I skipped right past that one!

Any thoughts??

And, what's your best poop story?

Lucia's pooping a ton these days.  I think because she's eating so many solids....  

Hmmmm, best poop story.... I'll have to think about that.  She's a pretty standard poo-er.

I don't really have a very good poop story, either, but I thought it could be hilarious.  I'm just waiting for the day he explodes a diaper while we're on an errand...

I feel like back in the beginning, when they were newborns, there were some good poo stories floating around the board.

My DS has been pooping up a storm too, I think it is definitely normal since they are eating more solids.

Best poop story? Um well DS pooped, no... had diarrhea... in a pumpkin patch over the weekend... Soaked through his onesie and jean pants all over DH's hand. When we went to change him in the car we ran out of wipes, only had 2, and the disposal bags. We also didn't have a change of pants so he rode home pantsless... Sigh.

Don't start thsi. I got a million poop stories. Ask fredpuma. I can't help myself.

 Let's hear them!  I could use a few good chuckles and such!

Oh, and maybe it's the solid foods thing...  Logan was a little late on the take for solids (we just really started SOLID foods a couple weeks ago, and even then, not much...), so maybe that's it...?  Like I said, he's not uncomfortable, or sick.  Just...  poopy.

He gets applesauce or other fruit and rice cereal for breakfast most days, rice crackers and puffs as busy snacks, bananas, peas and carrots, sweet potato, chicken...  strawberries...  raspberries... not too much else at this point.  Some yogurt.  He had cheese the other day....

J poops more than he used to, too. I think it's just from the increased variety.

Best poop story- J rarely has poop leakage. Like I can count the number of blowouts on my fingers.  But once, we were at a picnic, and MIL was holding him, and I thought I smelled poop, but she swore he hadn't pooped, I think just because she didn't want to give up the baby. A few minutes later, she goes to switch which side of her lap he's sitting on, and there is poop ALL OVER her leg. Guess Mommy was right after all.

Good poop story I don't care for FIL. For Easter we went to go have lunch at DH grandma and grandpas and FIL was holding Jackson. He kept saying that Jackson felt warm but I felt his forehead and he was totally fine. So he kept on holding him. At this time FIL had no feeling in his left arm due to a neck injury so he could only hold Jackson sitting down and with someone next to him. FIL decided after 15 min he couldn't hold him anymore so DH aunt went to grab him. Sure *** lol he was warm...he had the biggest blow out ever!!!!! He had poop coming out the collar of his shirt and it was in his socks. It was crazy cause we couldn't smell it and Jackson was fine!! Oh I still laugh at that! FIL was also covered in it. Thank goodness for his aunt cause shes raised her 5 kids and totally went into mom mode cleaning up Jackson for me!

Careful with the blueberries. It's known to give babies painful diaper rashes. Blueberries is something your suppose to give in moderation.
