Mommy #1: “The baby’s poop was black for three whole weeks after the birth.”
Mommy #2“ Really? Ours was only black for the first week or so.”
Mommy #1: “Is that so? Fascinating!”
It sure is. *

"...and it had the consistency of roofing tar!"
Last night M and I visited some great friends of ours who happen to have the most adorable little son. Adam is almost a year old and chaos on two legs. No button, book or spatula is safe when Adam is loose. It’s with great joy and a certain amount of trepidation I’m looking forward to when I’ll be the one dealing with projectile vomit, poo diapers, functioning on 2 hours of sleep a night and playing peek-a-boo all day long. It’s my firm belief that all new parents revert to the level of a 5-year old mentally, to be able to cope with everything a baby brings, (I’m not saying that you, Adam’s wonderful and very adult parents, are at the level of a 5-year old, I’m just presenting a theory here.) I also think it’s fascinating how bodily functions suddenly become so very interesting. This is an actual (completely made up) conversation between two new mothers:
Mommy #1: “The baby’s poop was black for three whole weeks after the birth.”
Mommy #2“ Really? Ours was only black for the first week or so.”
Mommy #1: “Is that so? Fascinating!”
