To say he must take his watch off to change DS’s nappy?

[Beeiappp]

I thought this was just usual and everyone did that?

If he’s getting shit all over his watch there’s something wrong with his nappy changing practice.
Or your baby.

He he… mayyyybe?😏

Well,if it's a poonami,I would so I didn't get poo on it.

How weird of you op. Who even thinks like this.

I’ve got 3 children and I never took my watch off to change their nappies. Why would you?

Initially I thought you were worried about the baby, now I realise you are worried about the watch 😂

Maybe for an 'armpit to knee' poonami. Otherwise, crack on

How patronising!

Op if its a poonami then yes....normal nappy change then no 😊

I'm confused.

I have four children (and three neices and nephews whose arses I've changed) and it never occurred to me to remove any jewellery while changing them.

I'm pretty sure I never got shite on my wrist either, tbh.

Are you sure you want to be one of those women who appoint themselves Lead Parent and teach their DH that he isn't capable of making the smallest decisions about parenting his kids? And then moan that DH doesn't do as much as they do? Seriously, you don't.

This place gets more batshit by the day

What have I just read? 🤣 just no 🤣

Would never have even thought of it?!

For every nappy change!?

I work in a nursery and change up to 25 nappies in one go and I never take off my ring or watch?

Say what!?! 🤨

"Bare below the elbow" is a healthcare term to prevent cross contamination in hospitals. As are rules on rings and jewellery. Do you take off rings and do a full surgical scrub between nappy changes? Very OTT. Handwashing is the only thing necessary. If you need to take off a watch to change a nappy, I think some education from the health visitor on nappy changing may be required

Weird af

He won't get shit on his watch changing the nappy. Even if he does, he could baby wipe it off. Shit is not nuclear waste. It's just shit and if you wipe it up, there's no problem. Try not to worry about this.

Eh? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

It’s unhygienic

I am just imagining that your DH wears an expensive watch with an expanding-metal wristband. That, in the event of a poonami on his watch (did you see what I did there?), he may be unenthusiastic about having to dig out faecal matter from the innards of the wristband.
However, with a waterproof watch & water/rust-proof wristband, he could just dunk the whole thing in baby-bottle steriliser, which should do the trick.

This takes micro-managing your partner to a whole new level.

What are you even on about, seriously, this is just weird!

@starsinthedarksky don’t you wear gloves though?
