For Parents Only

If you rush to the internet trying to figure out why your child's dirty diaper has taken on the appearance of black coffee grounds and find that it could be linked to, among other things, internal bleeding, stomach cancer and colitis. 

Stop. Take a deep breathe. Put down the phone with the pediatrician on speed dial. And ask yourself this:

Has my child eaten a pint of fresh blueberries lately?

If the answer is YES, count your lucky stars, switch to bananas, and stop looking stuff up on the internet!

Very funny. It took me weeks to figure out what was going on with Maeve's poo, I'm sorry I didn't share the insight. Blueberry skins are very dark. :)
