Baby Poop Strike

About two weeks ago, Emma went from sleeping about 8 hours straight to sleeping 12 hours straight for about three nights, after that she moved to 14 hour nights. Crazy! About the same time, she stopped pooping. She went yesterday for the first time in a week, making it her second BM in two weeks. I don't know if it has anything to do with sleeping so much, and therefore eating less, but I don't like it. She's been acting normally. She's smiling all the time, eating well during the day, and passing lots of gas. I weighed her the other day, one week after I weighed her for her 5-month weight, expecting her to up a ton since she wasn't pooping. She was down two ounces! So, with all this in mind, I called the doctor for reassurance. They figured that everything was probably just fine, but with all these things together, wanted to see her just to be sure. I took her in to her pediatrician this afternoon. Of course, he said things are just fine. I should be happy with the sleeping, she'll eat what she needs, and the pooping is normal. I'm happy now. (And her weight was 16lbs 1.5oz). We have her 6 month well-check in three weeks, so we'll get a good weight progression then.

This is Emma after we got home from her appointment. She's one happy baby.
