Poo in bath

DD is 2. DH was bathing her and she did a poo in the bath. I told him that last time it happened, I fished out the poo, drained the bath, and gave her a shower instead. I then disinfected the bath and the bath toys.

I went into the bathroom a few minutes later. He had fished out the poo but was bathing her in the same water. He didn't see an issue with it as "the poo was solid". I was disgusted, and ended up draining the bath and showering DD.

He can't see what my problem is. I can't believe he doesn't see an issue with bathing her in poo water. It's totally gross, right? Or AIBU?

It is only a bit of poo. It won't kill her.

I would have just scooped it out too if it was a solid little floater..

A quick splosh down afterwards using the shower head is all it might have elicited from me. All this disinfect madly at the drop of a hat is OTT.

I would have scooped and then replaced water and carried on.

One little bit of baby poo in a (presumably) biggish amount of water wouldn't make me reach for the disinfectant.

Now, thinking about a poo in a public swimming pool however ....
