awesome
I'm sitting in a bakery eating my scone, drinking my tea, enjoying a conversation with a friend I haven't seen in a while. Ethan's sitting in my lap smiling and laughing and having a good time. She asks to hold him. I start to hand him to her and look down.
Yeah, he totally pooped all over my lap. Since I'm not Donkey (wasn't that her blog?) I had to cut the visit short to go home and change. This was my first baby disaster in public. I feel like I should get a membership jacket as part of the club now.
Re: awesome
Anony, have you thrown away the birth control yet?
Came out of the diaper, somehow completely missed his pants and got on my pants. I have extra clothes for him, but I never thought to bring extras for me.
everybody poops
buddha doesn't use cloth diapers crazy baby stalker.
Thankfully I've avoided public poop disasters, and code browns in the tub.
A friend of a friend had a poop disaster in Costco with her newborn, and she had forgotten the diaper bag. Apparently it was a poonami. For some reason she thought the best course of action was to get cups from the ladies handing out free samples and scoop up the poop in cups.
I had a boy I was babysitting pee on me once, while he was sitting on my lap (he was 3).
I also had a baby I was changing after a poop continue to poop AFTER I took off her diaper. Yeah.
Guess I'm ready for this parenting thing. Not much else is involved, right?
Both of these things happen in our house with alarming regularity. You never remove the diaper from under the butt until the fresh one is in place. Cardinal rule.
The hair grows in thick where the horn used to be.
You can also avoid this by waiting a minimum of 5 minutes after the last poo-ing noise to start the changing process.
And I don't think stalker is totally off base. I swear Buddha mentioned getting pooped on in another recent thread.

I always found it difficult to look poised with baby barf in my shoes
Maybe Ethan is just having a particularly brown month:

helllllllllllno. i just refilled my prescription tonight and got H a costco sized pack of trojans. can't be too safe with that much poo on the loose.
when i asked the other day if parenting sometimes doesn't suck she regaled us with a poop story. so unless it's the same story it has happened twice+. i'm easily scarred by poo stories apparently so they stick in my brain.
it seems like everyone in these parts uses the cloth diapers, i didn't realize there was a mama who didn't! oops!
For less then ten cents a day, you can feed a hungry child.
