Totally tmi

Oct 15, 2011
WARNING!!! MAJOR TMI. Just writing it down for personal reference!

Ugh. So the last couple of days I've had what seems like diarrhea: slightly runny stool, major cramping, and it happening multiple times a day. If you've read my "job" blog you'd have read that I don't get bm all that often. So more than once day is diareah like for me.
I wonder if this is when I'd be on my period? The cramping is what hurts the most. Minor things that are getting on my nerves are the fatigue and lactation problems I'm also having.
I've noticed a discharge not unlike what id see around my ovulation dates. I winder if I'm going to start up my period again because that's what it feels like. Ugh! I hate the cramping.

Gasiosis of the mostest

I noticed today (technically yesterday because it's past midnight, but the date would be oct 17, '11), during small group that Paul had major gas problems. I mean I had noticed it before throughout the day but hadn't thought of it being anything other than just gas. But it was/is, in fact, a bad case of gas. I had to keep checking him for poopy diapers without there actually being one.
But we've just got him down for sleep and I'm sure I'll be up very soon comforting him again.
We have done our best to do everything we can think of to help remedy him, but only time will tell on this one. We have swaddled him and are playing white noise (was a combined effort at first of cellphones, radios, and the monkey. But we are down to just the monkey now). We also gave him a treatment of gripewater, so hopefully that will keep his stomach calm. Like I said though, only time will tell. The only thing keeping me awake now is the nagging question of; what did I eat today or yesterday that has given him such painful and stinky gas?
