DS' first solids poo

[Leirope]

Aaaaaaaaarrrrrggggghhhhhhhh.

Are we commiserating or congratulating?
(to cover the smell)

I knew this day was coming but I thought my child might be special and do lovely milky poos forever.

It was sticky, smelt like blue cheese and got everywhere.

Plonked him in the bath and a bit of undigested broccoli floated up from an unknown orifice.

I know what you mean. With DS's first solid poo I don't know what I was expecting but it weren't that.

Ah well, only another year or two of holding my nose before potty training!

well i hate to break it to you but mine is nearly four and refuses to use the loo for a poo it stinks the house out

still it makes finding out he has worms easier

Oh no! That reminds of this:

Hope they get sorted soon and you don't catch them!

Ah, solidarity (see what I did there?!).

The first time I changed DD when she went onto solids, I took her nappy off, and her bum looked.... Different. The hole was much bigger. Took me a minute to realise she was actually straining to push out a turd.

I shouted for DP. He held her little legs up a bit to help, and a pointy sharp hard dark brown turd poked its way out. Then, suddenly, exactly like the metaphorical turtle's head, it shot back inside and her bum closed up again.

I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. DD did both!

Leirope for some reason my DD aged nearly 3 insists on using the potty for a poo. Worse than nappies... agree with PP makes spotting worms easier (memories of an eventful walk in the local woods in the early days of potty training and the emergency potty being called into service for a poo that was crawling)

Breastfed baby poos are not actually unpleasant imo... just like slightly gone-off cake mixture. But pooed out kidney beans are just the grimmest thing ever.

Wait until you Mother feeds yours beetroot without telling you. Thought mine was bleeding to death.

I feel your pain! My kid is almost one and hers just seem to get worse and worse.

The shock of the first post-banana poo little seeds that look like worms.

And raisins that rehydrate into plump grapes!
