Sigi la! You Eat Your Fiber

Baby Kora is a good eater. But yesterday and today she started getting fussy while eating. Then came the teddy-bear poop face, which is like winnie the pooh smiling, except it's not because he found honey, it's because he's bearing-down (pun intended).

I talked to a nurse today about Kora's poop and described it as Teddy Bear Poop Face and she said, "I know exactly what you're talking about." Anyway, babies are allowed to grunt and push a little while pooping, but it seems like Kora might need a little more water with her food along with more fiber. The goal is "mashed potato" textured poop, not "smashed ube," I guess. (Smashed ube in, smashed ube out?)

TBPF arrived 3 times today, all during mealtimes. I guess her high chair is her #1 place to #2. Maybe eating just reminds her body to make room for more food. TMI alert, when I stay at my parents' house, this is exactly what happens to me every breakfast. 😬 The reminding part, not the pooping at the meal table part.

Today Kora ate pampano. Yesterday and today was her first gallo pinto (congee and black beans). She also had yogurt with fresh mango, carrots, and milk and eggs.

I don't really understand why her tai is hard because she's been eating a lot of fiber? More on this compelling developing poop story in the coming days.
