Yay! I know many of you don't care or understand my fascination with my daughters stool, but it really does consume my thoughts. Lately she has been even more constipated than usual, which is awful. Yesterday she grunted and screamed and wailed herself through the day, laying the occasional rock hard pebble in her diaper. This morning however...wow...so much poo, and not the constipated stuff at all! This is her first non-constipated poo in a month, and I am so pleased.
Oh, and just to let you know, the waking in the middle of the night phase is not over at all, she was just lulling me into a false sense of security. Last night she got up at 3, and was wide freaking awake. She played, and crawled on me, and smacked me, and shouted at the cats, and babbled to herself for almost two hours. She rubbed her eyes once and we plopped her into her crib, where she continued to chat with herself for another 30 or 45 minutes. Needless to say, today she is very tired and cranky, and so am I.

Yes, I agree with you in principle, but it's different when you're lying in bed, listening to the screaming and you know that you aren't going to sleep anyways. I do know that she is waking up because she's hungry and growing, so it's not that big a deal...most nights she goes right back to sleep after her bottle. It's just that between my problems falling asleep, and her waking up in the night, I am not very well rested lately.
I'll bet if someone had suggested a year ago that you'd be discussing and blogging about baby poop you'd never have believed it. Ah well, look at us now!(I do it as well).
We're doing the "cry (scream)it out" routine now. Danny sleeps through the night because we give him a bottle right before bed, but he screams for a good hour until he falls asleep-without fail-every single night. It is horrible-I don't know how much more of it I can take.
In a few years though, they will be screaming at us to *get out* of their rooms, and leave them alone!
