More poop talk
Simon has come down with a mild case of thrush. Along with the white patches in his mouth he also has a nasty diaper rash. Normal diaper ointments don’t help so we’re treating it with an over-the-counter anti-fungal cream and lots of bare bum time to air it out. This morning I had him naked in the bathroom with me when he started making the grunting noises that let me know he’s about to poop. Instead of rushing to get a diaper on him I just sat him on the edge of the toilet. It worked! I’m proud to say that Simon’s first poop in the potty was at the tender age of 7 1/2 months. He’s done it two more times today.
Some of you may think this is totally nuts but Simon has pretty regular bathroom habits (in the morning and in the afternoon) so I think I’ll keep putting him on the toilet when he lets me know it’s time to go. It saves diapers and a lot of messy cleanup.
