Poop.
From the start, Nyan’s bodily functions – which at this age consist solely of eating, peeing and pooping – were working just fine. A couple days ago, though, we noticed that the pooping had pretty much stopped. In fact, on Wednesday morning, we noticed that he hadn’t pooped at all in about 18 hours.
Being new parents with no idea about pretty much anything, we were a tad concerned. Not panicked – we’ve been remarkably calm, actually, throughout this thing; I think it’s a virtuous cycle: Nyan is a mellow, easy going kid, which keeps us mellow, which keeps him mellow, and so on and so forth – but a little bit concerned. So I did what one does in such a situation: I googled.
