My daughter stuck her head in my crotch area this evening when we were sat in the sofa, sniffed deeply then went "Agghhhh... Mummma!! You stink! You need to remember to wash your foof!!!"

I was mortified!!! Admittedly, it was day 3/4 of wearing the same jeans! 🙈😂

My 3 year old asked my why I have 4 bums... I have hip dips.... spurred me on to lose weight though. To be fair I just had my 4th baby. List it all now though

Both DC find it hilarious to refer to me as ‘the ancient mummy’ and dd makes me wave my arms and says “you’ve got wings! You’re like granny!” despite me flexing my biceps desperately

@Minky37

The Daily Fail have got hold of this now. Fucking hell, standards have dropped when a story about a stinky minge get published 🙄🙄🙄.

The DF don't have standards.

Perhaps it was the DF all along....

Yes @smoothchange it struck me as a remarkably weird thing to share about yourself tbh.

Wrongsideofhistorymyarse · 07/02/2021 17:43

I remember when my niece was about three.

'I love you Auntie Wrongside.'

Awwwwwww.

'I LOVE DIGGERS!!!'

Mum your bum wobbles when you walk, I mean really really wobbles.

Thanks for that love!

Coming out of the British museum ds1 (around 8 at the time I think) pointed at a guy in a very flashy supercar and said ‘Look, a neo-Assyrian war chariot’

Not sure the guy got it tbh...

When Dd was a toddler, she started saying "dino-roar, dino-roar".
I copied her. She said, in the most withering tone "mummy, you not a dino-roar".

Miss B why have you got a moustache?

absolutehush · 07/02/2021 18:40

When I was about 15 I helped a boyfriend babysit his younger brother. I had fairly (bad) teenage skin. The bother asked me if I had chickenpox.

The OP asked for the "most crippling put down from a child", not "how often should I wash my jeans?" or "does my vulva smell?" Some people on here Hmm

I worked for a while in a nursery (not in the UK) and was sitting next to a 5 year old. She said, "your teeth are really yellow". Bemused, I said, "oh, really?" She looked me dead in the eye and said, "I'm really serious. You should go to the dentist." Well, thanks! Grin

DS, when I was about 35 weeks pregnant with his sister, said to DH, "daddy, why have you got such a big tummy like mummy?" GrinGrinGrin DH is in no way chubby, but I chortled!

FrappuccinoLight · 07/02/2021 20:01

@CarlottaValdez

We’ve done quite a bit of work teaching DS about how you mustn’t comment on people’s bodies. Well it’s clearly worked as the other day we were both in the bath together and he gave me a long appraising look then said “I don’t say people are fat because it’s rude and could make them sad”.

Cheers DS, getting there!

I love the way they miss out which part of OP was stinking.

Given that she posted it and nothing else I doubt she gives a shite, you have an OP about having a fetid vulva and people will comment on that ‘part’

It takes longer for jeans to start to smell.[/quote]
But surely people don't wait for clothes to smell before they wash them?! Envy

MadameTuffington · 07/02/2021 22:10

Not actually directed at me but as a result of my bad choices - DD14 and DD10 having huge row about 4 years ago shrieking at each other, ‘Well your Dad’s worse than my Dad because ...’ over and over again - listing all the shitty things they’d done 😫

User66556 · 07/02/2021 22:53

I’d wear jeans probably 2-3 times- but omg she shouldn’t be able to smell you through them if your washing yourself? I shower daily and I’ve never noticed a bad smell on my jeans ? Do you think you could have a medical problem? X
