Dunk-n-Swish-free zone
Wednesday, November 07, 2007
So, pottying has not been going as well as it was when we first started. I used to catch almost every single poop and now, she is going in her diaper a lot. Her poops have gotten pretty unpredictable. She used to poop after her 2nd nap of the day like clockwork. Now, I have no clue when she is pooping - even WHILE she's pooping. She is a stealth pooper. I know the whole point of elimination communication is to read your baby's cues to know when they need to go potty, but I guess I haven't picked up on her signals just yet. She farts really big every time I sit her on the potty, so at least it's good for relieving gas!
DH just installed our new diaper sprayer and I love it! That thing blasts the poo into oblivion! No dunking and swishing for me, thanks. It was relatively inexpensive and I didn't have to pay for shipping. (Abby's Lane has free shipping on all orders until this Saturday) The box calls it a sanitary bidet and diaper sprayer. Whoa. I don't know that I would enjoy a fire-hose-blast of freezing cold toilet water shooting on my rear. But then, I've never tried it. Maybe I would.
Okay, well, you can adjust the preasure with the valve, so I bet it would've provided some post partum hurting hoo-ha relief. Oh, jet of cold refreshing water, where were you when my girlie parts needed you?? I can't wait to have another baby so I can try it. Just kidding.

oh, how this post made me laugh. any time dh even hints at having a second, my girlie parts become terrified. i don't think i can ever forget that specific pain and the fear i felt while crying "i hafta go pee, but its gonna huuuuurt!"
We love our sprayer SO MUCH. It never even occurred to me to use it postpartum! Dur.
A stealth pooper. I love it!
As a person who has expelled 5 humans from her hoo-ha (2 that exceeded 9 lbs and 2 that came within the same hour) the hoo-ha pain is greatly decreased after the first. Or at least it was for me. I still don't know if I would be up for an ice cold hoo ha blast from the diaper sprayer, though!
Oh you're a hoot! (And she's a toot, hee hee!) I've read about elimination communication but never tried it. I'll be following along to hear how it goes for you! :) Fingers crossed!
