Sorry to leave everyone hanging about Jacob, but with my in-laws sleeping right in front of the computer, it made it hard to access. They did an x-ray and found that Jacob was just stuffed full of stool (aka "woo"). They think maybe that was causing the bleeding. So they increased his dose of stool softener, and we have been changing a LOT of messy diapers, but so far no bloody ones! So I hope we're in the clear.

Also, our Friday the 13th was fairly eventful. After spending the morning with Jacob at the doctor, that evening we were forced to evacuate our house when it filled up with a noxious smell that we couldn't identify. We thought it might be gas of some sort, so we called the gas company, and they told us to evacuate immediately, and they sent out a guy to check. After checking, he said it wasn't gas and guessed it was refridgerant from our air conditioner. Long story short, the air conditioning guy said that there is nothing in the AC that is smelly, so we don't know what it was. The same thing happened the next day at about the same time, but it stopped when we turned off the AC. Still don't know what it was!

Good news about my little buddy.

The AC guy said there is nothing in the air conditioner that is smelly?!? The refrigerant used in AC units is very smelly. Also freon or refrigerant used in a fridge is very smelly. If you have a leak in either of those systems you'll get a bad smell that kind of smells like it's burning the inside of your nose. If it continues, try to track it down toward your utility room (or wherever your furnace is) and see if it's stronger there.

Glad to hear Jacob is ok. A few extra messy diapers can be a good thing at times!
