A few weeks ago my darling son pooped. (Great start right?) Well on this eventful evening, I unsnapped his diaper, the second it was opened he grabbed the side and ripped it towards himself.
Poo everywhere! Oh boy do I wish I was talking about the lovable bear, but no. On his legs, on the floor, on his foot, on his bum. I managed some wresting moves to keep him put long enough to clean everything up! Got the new diaper on and headed upstairs to flush the evidence.
Our stairs are blocked off by a gate. When I got to the bottom I heard my poor Mr b crying for mom as he often does if I have to leave him down there alone. As I stepped into the bathroom I looked into the mirror and froze... There was poo on my neck! How on earth did it get there??? As I was cleaning the diaper I scrubbed and scrubbed my neck as quickly as possible. I hurried downstairs and picked my little love up. Hubby was outside so we decided to take a minute and go sit and watch daddy.
As we were walking back my love went to put his arm around my neck and that's when I saw it. Poo on his hand! It must have gotten there when he pulled the diaper and I missed it when washing up the rest. Light bulb went on as to where the neck poo had come from. I took him and washed his hand all clean. Finally done.
We got outside sat on the steps am I look at my baby. There are little brown spots around his mouth! 😣 What I didn't previously mention is that my tiny mister is 1 1/2 and has been popping molars ever few weeks for the past 3 months. Which involves a LOT of hand chewing. No wonder my love was crying at the bottom of the stairs he had gone to hand chew and gotten poo in his poor mouth. As I'm noticing this I glance down and there are finger poo marks on his shirt and shorts.
I took him inside just in time to hear the diner timer go off. Thank goodness. I got him stripped and wiped down. He ate diner and then it was time for a bath and then bed.
I could not believe what a mess a diaper could make.
Hopefully no one reading this has had this experience and can take my memory as a good laugh. However if this has happened to you, as it probably has or will, I hope you take comfort in my understanding and support of another mommy who's been there.
