I started my FaceTime with Grandma and Grandpa right after my morning nap so I was eating my lunch with them watching. As usual, they were very impressed by my appetite and gusto for eating.
But after I finished eating, I started blinking in a funny way at them. It was like I was trying to wink. But then I started to push trying to move my bowels. I wanted to play, but there were bodily functions that I had to take care of. It was a very busy time.
Speaking of bowel movements, let me tell what it is like for me nowadays. Often, right after I finish eating, I start to grunt, growl, and my face turns red. That is usually me trying to move my bowels. Sometimes I manage to poo, but other times it seems like all I’m doing is compacting the poo inside me. Then later when I actually move my bowels, it is hard and I start crying. It is hard for Mommy and Daddy to watch me in pain. They keep me hydrated and feed me foods high in fiber, but I think it is the compacting part that makes my bowel movements so painful. I think I’ll try to up my intake of fluids and fiber even more!
