Exploding Poop!

Isabel maybe adorable and a darling, but she also has her dark side - namely she poops so much that we have not found a diaper that can keep the poop off her clothes.

We started with Pamper Swaddlers and they worked fine for the first 6 weeks and then for some reason her poop got more powerful. When she poops, it shoots up her back. We still haven't figured out why yet.

So we switched to Huggies Secure and Dry. The result unfortunately is the same. Maybe we are not putting it on tight enough but we don't want it too tight (you should be able to insert two fingers in the waist). She gets imprints off the diapers as it is. It's amazing how baby can deal with such a big thing on their butts.

I guess at least she is not constipated. That could be worse. We are definitely happy that she poops a lot as it's a sign of a good digestive system. We just hope to find a diaper that can hold it all. Right now, we have to change her clothes 1-2 times a day and I am constantly washing poopy clothes every day. It's amazing that I don't mind it at all. I guess motherhood definitely made me change.

Another mom suggested we get diapers that are for bigger babies. We may try that next. We still have 120+ Huggies diaper as we always try to buy bulk. She goes through so many. Wish us luck!
