If you don't like discussions of poop, stop reading now.
For the rest of you: poop is a frequent topic of discussion around our house (though not around the dinner table). Last night, I was having some Braxton-Hicks contractions and moaning, holding my stomach. On determining that my stomach hurt, Viva said: "You should go sit on the toilet." It was a proud moment.
On a related note, constipation is a common occurrence in pregnancy. No, it's true, and it can be really uncomfortable. Let me share with you a tip I found out completely by accident: fresh figs. Eat just a few and you'll be happily pooped out within an hour.
Fortunately, I have a fig tree right outside my kitchen window. And unicorns and happy little elves in my back yard! It is truly a magical land.
