I don't really frequent parenting boards anymore, but I'd love insight from anyone here...( this post mentions baby poop...feel free to skip )

Thank you! I know this is a little bit OTT but the snortling (love that word!) has had me *convinced* that Sammy was on te verge of serious illness. I know it's part new mom but still, I feel reassured.

It's funny. Some stuff is easy. Like, I've got the sleep stuff mostly managed. But other stuff, like this, has been all new.

I'll also note that Emmett had trouble pooping because he had a tight sphincter. It was just hard to pass poop and he'd turn all purple before he pushed it out. We went through a period where we needed to use suppositories and lots of mineral oil to get rid of impaction (which can cause serious problems).

One definition of parenthood: Willingness to talk about poop without cringing.

Yeah, sometimes I have to work to remember that not everyone is as free with the poop talk.

And I appreciate your comment about Emmett. Frisco went through a bought of constipation last weekend and neede suppositories. NOT fun although I was as relieved as he was the next day when it was all over. (seriously, took 18 hours to see some results.).
