What goes in must come out - bodily functions

[frualeydis]

What goes in must come out. Or maybe not.
Actually I need some help with vocabulary here. The words for bodily functions are not the first you learn in school. I mean, I know the word "shit", we have the same in swedish, the verb "skita" and the noun "skit", but they are considered rude and the neutral word is "bajsa" and "bajs", so I wonder: is there a neutral word in english?
With the "value" of "skit" in swedish it feels strange to talk about babyshit, unless you're upset.
Anyway, she's almost stopped doing that. In the beginning she did it ten times a day and now it's maybe only every three days. And the change came very suddenly. It feels really strange, but of course it means less laundry since the diapers she's only peed in doesn't have to be machine-washed, you just rinse the pee out of them and hang them to dry. Nice but surprising.
Another bodily function:
I'M LEAKING!! And I don't like it. I mean this morning I was leaking from my left breast even after she had eaten from it for ten minutes. And my right breast was playing fountain. At least one thing that was easier with twins, one baby at each breast. But now, everything smells old milk, I smell old milk, my sheets do, my baby does.
She just woke up, bye, bye.

No change in diet, still just my milk, and she's also stopped crying circa two weeks ago. And when it comes it's as rinning as ever. The good thign with children who only get breastmilk, they never get constipation. The tummyache is believed, at least in Sweden, to be caused by immaturity of the parts of the body used in food digestion, so it almost always ends before they're three months old, or earlier as in this case.
Now she only cries a little because she's tired and really wants to sleep.
