We have poo!!!!!
January 12, 2008 — Nutty MummyMagic Cream! We love you!
We went shopping today for ‘Magic Cream’ … I have seen it before on the shelf in Boots. Avent actually do a cream … a hypoallergenic moisturiser for dry skin and many other claims… and have called it ‘Magic Cream’.
She was totally up for it
We bought some and talked about it all afternoon.
One of the consistent claims she has made is that her bottom hurts. I’m almost ashamed to say that I have dismissed it out of hand because I just thought that she was saying whatever she thought it would take to get out of having to poo in the toilet.
But - after tonight I think I do believe her.
She did do a poo on the loo - the magic cream was enough to tempt her. She’s flinched at cold cream on her bum before and says it stings (whatever it is) so I left it floating in the bath for 5 minutes before we tried to apply and then put it on before she sat on the loo.
She was v impressed it was warm and that totally brought her round. 1 point to me!
I could tell she was curious. Last night she hopped off the loo after a few minutes and clearly wasn’t up for it but tonight she stayed there and I offered a towel to wrap around her thinking that perhaps if she had some privacy that might help….?
So she dropped the towel after a coupla minutes and said it was coming.
Lucky me - got full view - her eyes did water quite a lot to be fair and she said it was stinging so I think she may indeed have a sore tushy.
More magic cream afterwards.
Suitably proud of herself but a little reticent - she agreed to tell Daddy what had happened. We went to find him and when she backed out of saying, I brought BN up to date. He offered congratulations and gave her a kiss and Rowan replied…
‘But I’m not impressed though!’
