Explosive

I started feeding Baby hyper-mashed pototo last week. Everything was going fine; her initial reaction to this new food soon developed into acceptance and now she seems to like it.

But the worrying thing is that Baby hasn't pooed since her first taste of spudliness. It's been four days.

In the past, she's sometimes held on for two days; then when she did poo the resulting mess was just ALL OVER. So you can perhaps sense my concern.

Baby's next poo could well put us knee-deep in the brown stuff.

eb: it was the main reason Baby never had nappy-free time in her first month or two - I was scared she'd surprise us.

Lucky for me that, when Baby finally produced her poo (and just as big and scary as we predicted), the boy was looking after her at the time - so he was the one up to his elbows (literally) in it.
