TMI, but I just have to tell somebody!

Oh dear lord!

Just had to literally cut DS out of his first epic pooplosion
I'd heard stories about liquid-poo-filled babygros, but I didn't think it really happened!

I told DP and all I got was hysterics, and I don't think any of my single 20-something friends would appreciate hearing about my son's faeces but I just HAD to tell someone (think I'm still in slight shock!) and I reckoned you MNers would understand

poo-magedon!

Welcome to motherhood

Be prepared for many more poo related incidents in the future eg. sifting through their poo to 'find' something they've swallowed.

Poonami, congrats!

The first poo-magedon (love that!!) made me give up cotton wool and water and resort to wipes !

Potty training is even more fun - just wait!

Too right, if I'd tried to clean that lot up with cotton wool I would've gone through every bit I have in the house!
In the end I had to give him a bath, it was that bad. It's no wonder he seems so happy now though

At least the first one is over now and I know I can deal with it. Just hope DP is home next time it happens

sometimes you think poor darlings how was all of THAT inside your tiny body

worst one i had was epic poo that went unnoticed as baby was in a sling and when i got him out it was from his collar down to the toes of his baby grow

just wait until a year or so's time and you come back into the bathroom to see a naked dc pointing at a swirl on the floor saying "poo mummy poo!"
and then grabbing the wipes saying "me me do it, me me do it"

I have a fond memory of posting as my Facebook status when my son was a few weeks old 'how can one small boy hold so much poo??!?!?'

Congratulations on achieving one of those parenting 'firsts' they don't warn you about in the baby books!
