Caleb has been trying lots of new food the past 3 weeks since he started. He’s been eating rice cereal, avocado, nectarine, pear, sweet potato and oat cereal (and possibly other stuff). This "solid" food starts off actually very mushy where it’s in fact mostly just liquid breast milk. But as he’s been eating more and more, the less mushy it gets, and the more solid it gets. <\/p>\n
Last week, we started feeding him solid foods for dinner right before bed as well as in the morning. Last week we were feeding him sweet potato in the morning and rice cereal in the evening. Well for those of you who don’t know, those foods can cause constipation. Fortunately for our son, he didn’t have bad constipation. He pooped a little on Friday, and didn’t poop again until Monday afternoon, which is a long time for our child, since he’s been pooping regularly a few times a day. So not having to clean poop on Caleb for weekend was quite nerve wracking for us. But alas, he finally pooped on Monday with a nice series of long poops to make up for it.<\/p>\n
Caleb is struggling to get this new poop out since it’s much thicker than before. On breast milk alone, he pooped liquid. Now that he’s on solids, he poops thick like daddy. Caleb’s poop is even as stinky as daddy’s. Except daddy’s poop is covered in water, so it doesn’t stink as bad. Caleb’s poop is out in the open, just like a doggy’s poop after he’s meaty food. It don’t smell good.<\/p>\n
I had an opportunity to see Caleb poop in action this morning. As I was changing him before his nap, he started releasing a bunch of poop. Not thinking fast enough, I wasn’t able to get video or pictures of it. Too bad. Next time though.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
