POOP DAY!!

Alyssa hasn't pooped since last Sunday & each day I've been on the edge of my seat waiting for a poopy diaper.  Over the weekend I really started to worry even though I've read that it's not uncommon for a breastfed baby to go up to a week without pooping (this was NEVER the case with Addison).  It just means her little body is more efficient at absorbing the breast milk.  I went to bed last night prepared to wake up this morning & call the pediatrician!  Well, hallelujah, this morning I was about to change her diaper & heard some wonderful noises going on inside!  YAY!  POOP!  So, I let her finish, but she wasn't finished.  Two diapers later & 100 wipes, I am thrilled that she pooped!

Boy, I have been there too many times. I never thought i'd want to cry happy tears over stinky poop until I had Avery! :)
