The Polar Opposite

At the beginning of our Nyla's life, we struggled pretty good with constipation. It was painful to see her trying to push one out, and if she went a few days without a poop, that was okay.

It seems that Miss Nyla's body has switched directions, because now homegirl is pooping multiple times a day. Case in point, today I went to Target with my mom. Nyla had already pooped in the morning so I didn't worry about bringing the diaper bag into the store; she wasn't going to go. Oh how wrong I was. Nylabear decided to poop right in the middle of my shopping expedition. Thankfully my mom was with me, so I was able to go out to the car and get the diaper bag by myself. We all know that doing anything with a baby takes fifty times longer, so any chance I get to do something individually, I take it!

After Target, I thought to myself Okay Elizabeth, she's pooped twice now so we're good for the rest of the day. Incorrect again, Mommy. We drove to Milton-Freewater today, and en route, we stop at Paul's grandmother's house for about an hour to play and let Nyla stretch. She could have pooped anytime during the hour we were there, but noooooooo. I think Nyla heard us saying "Bye Grandma! See you again soon!" and started pushing out her dump. 10 minutes down the road, jackpot again for Nylabear!

Let's not even talk about the aroma of her poop right now. We've added rice cereal so the diet so the "notes" of her poop are even more emphasized and fragrant now. In layman's terms, it's heinous. But I'm much happier having a happy, pooping baby! Hooray Nyla, maybe your tummy issues are maturing! :)
