To think that a fresh clean nappy is the best kind to poo in?

Because mummy thinks IABU but I don't agree. It's just so much nicer, so I make sure I do it every day if I can. And it's not my problem if she has to change my nappy twice in the space of 15 minutes is it?

The very best place though is a thoroughly squirty high velocity poo all over Mummy's silk trousers hiding in a corner of a wedding reception cos the baby changing was full with a big queue. She thought it would be quick and easy and knelt down in front of me, I waited until she lifted my legs to clean me up and then went for it. She pulled the BEST face and had to sponge her trousers and then let them dry through the meal getting cold in the process. My, how I laughed!

I'm SpsMini and I'm 3.

I like to moan for the toilet because I need a wee. Have a wee then jump down. Mum asks if I've finished and I say yes. I wait for mum to start doing something then shout again I need a wee.

She takes me to the toilet again. I do nothing and jump off. The minute we get downstairs I shout poo poo mum! Coming mum!

She then has just rush me back up the stairs and try and get me on the toilet in times sometimes she's too slow. I love this game

YellowTulips · 10/12/2012 18:34

YANBU - but I think some additional experimentation is required. A personal tip is not to just wait for the new nappy, but also a new sleep suit. This technique is best used when feeling wriggly and you know a super poo is on the way.

I gave myself 5 points for exceeding the capacity of the nappy, 10 if I can got it up my back, 15 to my legs a special gold star if it filled the feet of the sleep suit Grin.

Bonus points also available if when being cleaned up with second nappy I could push out a bit more....

Hope this advice helps OP!

Mega points are scored if you and your younger brother BOTH poo in clean nappies when your Mummy goes to put her boots on to do the school run turns her back for a moment.

Thankfully this has only happened once so far in my nappy changing experience!

BabyPickle - I am impressed, my mummy is glad to be done with nappies so I can't get any ideas about replicating your stellar performance. Bravo!

a clean fresh nappy is always the best. Especially if it's the one mummy has just put on at bedtime, so coupled with a clean sleepsuit (and if I'm really clever, clean sheets). I usually wait for lights out to cause maximum chaos - surely mummy should be able to do it blindfold by now, she should have had enough practice with my big brother...

For a while I thought I was ahead of DD and waited when changing her- sang a song etc as she would poo in the old nappy. She is now ahead of me again doing stealth poos with no warning or anything. Just the stench and this wild grin.

MrsHowardRoark · 10/12/2012 18:53

I've always found the best time to do a particularly messy poo is 30 seconds before we leave the house and I'm in my coat and shoes.

Not only is Mummy then really stressed about being late but she has to strip about 5 layers to before changing me.

Failing that, a 5am poo can be an excellent start to everyone's day.

ICBINEG · 10/12/2012 18:56

the best time to poo is in the bath...because Daddy is terrified of poo and will make mummy catch it on the way out in her bare hands if nothing else is close enough....

SomeTiggyPudding · 10/12/2012 19:03

When you have done a poo, try laying on your tummy. Then you should bring your legs round in front of you while rocking back on your bottom, through a sitting position, until you're laying on you back. That gives you the best chance of squeezing any poo out of the back of your nappy.

BTW, cat food is much tastier than baby mush.

AlienRefucksLooksLikeSnow · 10/12/2012 19:04

The best time to do a poo is without doubt on the afternoon school run, so that me and Mum are in the playground waiting for DB trying to keep down wind of everyone else.

I peaked at 5 days old when I did a poo fountain on Daddy's hand as he was putting my new nappy on and made him cry.

A close runner up was when Mummy changed 3 nappies in 5 minutes as I discovered the joys of staggered poos.

My favourite is doing it 4 times in the space of an hour in a place where there is no baby change so my mummy has to struggle on the floor!

Ah yes, I have many a time waited until I have been layered up in a variety of clothes and then put in my splash suit dungarees which have elastic to keep my wellies on... splashed in a couple of extra muddy puddles (at least mummy hopes it is mud) and then done a poo, just so that mummy has to get past the soggy muddy splashsuit elastic to get all my layers off and put them all back on again.

My best one though has to be the time I exploded a poo at daddy when I was a couple of weeks old. Daddy wasn't paying attention and if it hadn't hit him then I'm sure it would have reached 5 feet across the room at least.

Why thank you YellowTulips. I'm planning to give tips to my sibling due any day now! Although I also liked doing a poo on my indoor trampoline when potty training. It bounced when I bounced.

JesusInTheCabbageVan · 10/12/2012 20:47

Grin at poo fountain.

My proudest moment was in a stuffy, warm GP waiting room, half an hour before my name was called, right at the peak of the norovirus epidemic. Mummy thought she'd be OK to leave the changing bag at home because I'd already done one just before we left. Wrong, mummy!

Lmfao @ curl one off on the carpet.

That's my specialty - then run through it to hide from mummy, trampling it into the carpet.

MumofWombat · 10/12/2012 22:43

Here's how to do the trifecta!
Do a smelly, noisy fart so your Mummy 'thinks' you've done a poo. Then, when she's changing you actually do the poo - but make it explode! Then cry, so Mummy has to pick you up, then vomit all over her shoulder, then when she puts you back down on the changing mat wee all over her! It's so funny! She has poo, vom and wee all over her! And then when Daddy gets called to help, he really appreciates your sense of humour judging by how much he laughs!

VisualiseAHorse · 10/12/2012 23:14

Personally, I prefer just pooing on the floor, while mum's back is turned (she's normally busy finding me a clean vest, as I like to wee on the one I'm wearing when she's changing my nappy). Then I like to roll over and smear it all over my belly.

I time my pops just before my mummy's friends arrive, gives the house a nice aroma I feel and the friends with no little babies appreciate it the most.

MiniBea now 2yo

My top tip would be to hold poo in for as long as is humanly possible - the best I managed was 10 days and then when I pooed I wouldn't stop and it ran off the end of the changing table on to the carpet - it was brilliant. I still hold my poo in now even though I'm five - it makes me be in a VERY bad mood but it annoys mummy so it's worth it.

My other top tip would be to hold in your poo for as long

propertyNIGHTmareBEFOREXMAS · 10/12/2012 23:36

If you poo in a fresh, clean nappy then you are far less likely to leak turd everywhere so on that basis alone, Yanbu.
