Yes, I said it... POOP.
My 221/2 month old has been constipated. She's cutting molars. She doesn't get the runny teething poo - she gets all blocked up.
I've tried apples, fiber bars (borderline mean-mommy), citrus, you name it. So, I started using Epsom Salt baths.
SUCCESS!
While Ava is on the "Epsom Treatment", she can't have baths with her big sister.
Tonight, I wasn't paying attention. Hannah decided that baby sister was having a bath, so she should too!
When I realized Hannah was in the bath with Ava, I told Hannah about the "Epson Treatment". She didn't care - I don't think she quite realized what could happen...
20 minutes later, Hannah comes running out of the bathroom screaming, "Mommy! There's Poop in the bathtub!!"
After I stopped laughing, it hit me. What about the bath toys? Ava's still in that water! Eeeewwwww!
Hannah told me she saw her sissy "grunting" a little so she got out. "And sure enough, Mommy, she pooped!"
So, after I got the toys out (there were only 2) and put aside to clean (NOT a fun job), I pulled Ava out and bleached the tub. Then I put her back in and washed her up good. She was flying high as a kite! Her belly must have felt like brand new!!
I got Hannah back in the tub and washed her up and finished our bedtime routine.
My week wasn't complete without POOP in the bathtub!
