What, no picture on this post?
That's right ... but it's because Wednesday, July 6th, (and on into Thursday the 7th) was officially declared POOP DAY by the officials that declare such things. If you don't like reading about poop, skip this one ...
So, how many times in 2 hours do you think a newborn need a diaper change? The answer for Henry (so far) is three full bowel-defying movements. In the middle of the night. As an aside, the "middle of the night" for Henry is between 3:00 and 6:00. That's when our boy is the most, shall we say, active?
How many diapers can two incompetent new parents go through in 45 seconds? Answer: three. Trying to be overachieving parents, and realizing that poop probably doesn't feel good on a new baby's bottom, I whisked little Henry away at the first sign of movement and smell that something may be amiss. Got the diaper off, and behold ... THERE WAS POOP! Three seconds later, more poop was coming out. The diaper was off at this point, so I'm trying to play catcher at this point. Fastball down the middle. Curveball off the plate. Etcetera. I'm pretty proud of myself, get that diaper off of him, get the new one under him, and MORE POOP! Changed that diaper, got the third one on, and he was (finally) done. Whew!
That's probably enough poop talk for all of you ... send your poop story by clicking on the "Comments" link below.
