Danica does not give a 'poop'

It was a long weekend without a poop for Danica. She last went on Friday afternoon and I sit here sniffing while I type, awaiting the pungent aroma from Danica's diaper that will signify that her poop strike has ended... it's been almost 2.5 days.

Maybe for some people that is not a long time, but Danica usually never skips more than one day. So two plus days is a record. I am a little nervous about things myself so any kind of problem usually gets escalated in my head only making matters worse. At work last night I envisioned her all bound up and her digestive innards slowly ballooning to the point that if the didn't poop today we would be in big trouble.

I looked up on the Internet when I got home and could not find a definitive answer. How long can an almost 11 month old go without pooping. When should we really start to worry? But I think I've got the solution. I'll leave it up to my friend Mr. Prunes. They are much like Roto-Rooter for your toilet... and work just as quick.

Danica had a great sleeping weekend. On Friday Night she slept from 8PM to 730AM... a record for her. Almost 12 hours straight. The next night she awoke at 1AM, and last night she slept from 8PM to 550AM. It appears she is making her way to full nights of sleep which is great for her pregnant mommy!
