Glad to hear you found the cause and your baby is doing better!

Thank you for sharing because my grandfather likes to eat sunflower seeds since he quit smoking, and he leaves trails of shells sometimes. Granted, I don't let Rylie eat anything that isn't something I give her (yay for "leave it"). However, it doesn't mean that if I didn't notice the mess she wouldn't go at it Now I know to be extra careful when we're around grandpa!
