This poo is for you.

*note* bodily functions are discussed within, so if this is the sort of thing that bothers you, maybe you want to skip this one.

You can tell that you are a parent, when you find yourself HAPPY to change a dirty diaper. It starts when you get the newborn home, and are worrying she is eating enough... Then it tends to center on whether it is all coming out all right. Well, apparently we are going through THAT again.

New Years day, we picked up Lil Bit from my mother in law's and found out that Lil Bit had had a rough time of it. It was reported that Lil Bit had a bowel movement that was very large and hard. She was in much pain and even bled with it a little bit. The next day, she had some pain with the next bowel movement. After this, Lil bit went four days without a Poe.

On Friday, it was decided enough was enough. I called and made an appointment for the next day. Lil Bit's doctor prescribed mineral oil, salve for her rear (apparently the skin had been broken with the pressure), and recommended lots of prune juice and prune sauce.

I am pleased to report that things seem better now, and somehow that I have been blessed with a child that LIKES prune juice.

Yep, was happy to see that dirty diaper yesterday
