Seriously though, it’s good that you recognize you have some anxiety here and as a result, don’t do anything like a crazy diet until you check with an expert. They’re supposed to be squirmy and uncomfortable when they’re pooping. That’s just being a baby. Pooping is hard - they have to learn to coordinate the muscles to push and relax at the same time.
Do you have a good baby book like the one from the pediatrician’s association? A lot of this kind of thing is in there.
Seriously though, restricting your diet like that is a big step. Don’t just do that sort of thing on a whim.
Googled and sent to a friend who said it looked exactly as it should.
I feel like an idiot. I am not a kid/baby person so I’m afraid if I ask too many questions or don’t seem like that I know what I’m doing or taking the initiative people will think I don’t know what I’m doing. But I guess I really don’t.
