Wow, you read the title and you are still going to read this post. Mighty brave of you. This is the real, well cartoon of The PoopSmith . This is exactly how I feel right now. Now either you are going think that clip is funny or you are going to think that I have lost my mind. I think probably both.

Seriously, I have to update you on Daphne. She is doing better. I am glad the pediatrician told us to stop the antibiotics. She was miserable. She slept on her tummy last night. I know that I am supposed to move her onto her back, but sleeping on her tummy is probably more comfortable. If I were to move her onto her back she would just turn over again. She did sleep 8 hours last night. This is a big improvement, but she still isn't back to her normal sleeping routine. The 8 hours makes me think that she is starting to feel better.

Back to the poo! Jack and I have a new diaper changing routine. We normally use the softest diaper wipes on the market, but her rash is so bad that we can only use water and a soft cloth. Pretty gross! We have to keep a bucket of warm water by her changing table at all times and have to make sure her bum is super dry before putting on the diaper. Her pediatrician suggested using a hair dryer on a LOW setting, but we aren't doing that. We just fan her. I feel so bad for her. It is breaking my heart. We also went on a mad search for a product called Resinol that the pediatrician suggested. It is some kind of rash ointment that is better than the product we are currently using called Desitin . I hope the Resinol smells better! Unfortunately we couldn't find any, so I asked a pharmacist at one of the local drugstores to order it for me. We will be able to pick it up later this afternoon. I hope it helps!

Well, Daphne summons. I will try to keep all of you updated on her well-being.
