We started probiotics this week. Amazon Prime delivered to my doorstep a bottle of miracle bacteria to add to LIttle Miss’ bottles. Within 12 hours, she was acting like a different baby. NO JOKE! I’m now the biggest believer in these little guys. Public Service Announcement: If you know any poor soul dealing with a baby with “colic,” tell them to go immediately to get probiotics. They are the bomb diggity.
Now that she is acting like a “normal” baby, I’m beginning to think about my own bodily functions. This week, we’re exploring the experience of putting the baby down to brush my teeth, putting the baby down to eat some lunch, and even putting the baby down to go poop! When you gotta go, you gotta go…. and, if you know the baby is not crying because of pain, then your poop takes precedence over baby’s preference to be held.
You know you’ve been there… having to poop while holding a baby. We’ve all been there.
