All Systems Functional

Those who have no desire to read about Baby Poo should stop reading now.

I knew that introducing solids would have an impact on Nicholas's poo. Obviously, changing what goes in will change what comes out.

But I had no idea how immediate the impact would be.

Yesterday morning Nicholas had about 1/2 tablespoon of rice cereal. This morning he had closer to a full tablespoon.

By 11:20 he had filled (and I mean filled to capacity) his diaper 3 times. This after he had established a norm of every other day.

The books warn that rice cereal can cause constipation in babies. Not in Nicholas.

By the way, you are welcome. I know you appreciate that this post did not include any photos!
