Day 2


Today was the first day of poop! He had a pool of dirty stuff in his diaper this morning. Looks like the pipes are beginning to work. Not fully though. He was distended, so the doctors irrigated him and got out some gas and watery stool. While not his favorite activity, Eli tolerated it well. He only told the doctor "Stop it!" a few times. And believe it or not, he says it rather politely. That episode pretty much sums up his disposition, uncomfortable but sweet. He sleeps and watches TV a lot. He has discovered a new love, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and the spongesicle (a moist sponge on a stick. Yum) . More later.
