As expecting and new parents, you get to hear some horror stories from family and friends. Mostly you hear, “get used to no sleep!” As parents of a boy, you may hear some other fun stories and parenting oops of surprise pees. (Random tip we got from our pediatrician, apparently “it” will go up right before he pees. Tip #2, if worried, drop a wet wipe over it while exposed.
So…worst/funniest moment I’ve had? And not necessarily because I had a boy… The first week or two, middle of the night diaper change. I’m still waking up every two hours to feed the baby, so pretty sleep deprived. Opened the diaper, and got sprayed….with poop…so..much….poop. From my waist… And down my thighs and into the floor. Words that came out of my mouth “OH S***….literally…” then called for my husband for help. Have you ever tried cleaning carpet in the middle of the night, exhausted? Would not recommend.
Let’s just say, I would rather get peed on any day. And we’ve been terrified of it happening again for many days after…
To this day, no matter what our baby has done (vomit, spit, etc.), my husband still goes “It’s still not as bad as when you got projectiled pooped on – I’ll take this any day over that”
