mesoteto said----- 3-the first poop like stuff, I think its spelled me·co·ni·um—it’s the first waste your baby will produce, its like tar and will stick to her little bum as if you had glued it on there, also the hospital will not let you take here until they have see a peepee diaper, this is to make sure the kidneys are working fine.
Isn't that because the babies first meal is essentially it's own hair? I think it was on QI (British TV program)... The foetus has longish hair before birth, but it falls out to become the babies first (oral) meal.
