We Do What We Must
I have an answer for you Heather. Apparently, warm water does loosen the rectum making a child go poop.
Yesterday, Lauren was obviously fighting the urge to go poop. Some quick remembering had us realize the last time she did go poop was the bathtub incident. So that was 4 days of holding it in, creating quite a backlog (as it were). Worrying it might be something serious, we called the doctor to get some advice. She mentioned that the bathtub might do the trick, so we decided to give it another try. We were smarter this time though and got a Country Crock tub to catch what came out. Sure enough, seconds after sitting in the water, she screamed and started crossing her legs. We knew the warm water was doing its job on her, so we grabbed the tub and caught another significant log.
Parenting involves making sacrifices like we did yesterday. Sure the butter is going to taste funny for a little while, but we had to do what we had to do.
