monkey butt
We have been really fortunate to have not had a bout of diaper rash...until now. The last two days Eddie's bum has been red and his dad calls it "monkey butt." He has been pooping so much lately; yesterday was four times! I think it is because he eats fruit with every meal and tons of it. Yesterday I swear he ate a half a pint of raspberries and his last poop of the day looked like Smuckers...with seeds. And his bum was all red. I thought it was solely from the raspberries but then this afternoon it was red again. It could be because I am giving him his fruit with the rind on it now. He actually ate a whole apple the other day...just saw me eating one and wanted one too, so I figured, why not see what he does. He ate like 3/4 of it just like he should eat it, around the core and all...it was pretty cool. The new food we have introduced over the past couple of days is peanut butter. So maybe it is the peanut butter bothering his underside. I guess I will stop the peanut butter and see what happens. There is no way I am stopping fruit because he loves it so much and we have so much of it in the house right now. But maybe I will slow down the berry intake!
