POUCH!

[Dookus]

I'm sorry, but placental mammals weren't meant to do that.

1. That pouch is so damn handy

My son keeps growing out of his slings. If only we humans had pouches, I could carry him hands-free.

2. well

teach the little bugger to walk, dammit!

[Book Lover]

3. He knows how to walk

I just like keeping his beautiful little self close to me! He's the cleanest-smelling thing in the house :-)

5. well

not to disparage your housekeeping....

but I've smelled a few babies in my time and I wasn't all that impressed.

[Book Lover]

6. Excuse me but

my baby's behind smells like roses at all times. Harumph.....

[Dookus]

7. lol

Thank goodness for parental blindness - otherwise we'd have died out ages ago.

8. Ha!

I never knew why people would buy those room air fresheners until I had a diaper pail in my home...

[Dookus]

9. heheh

it's hard to imagine what my mother went through.

She had four children under the age of 3 and a half, only cloth diapers, and no washing machine.

10. Rice paper diaper liners

They (and their contents after use) are flushable is all I'm sayin' ...

11. I'm not a parent

but I have 8 nieces and nephews, and I've babysat all of 'em, as well as a bunch of friends' kids.

How the hell do they poop so much? Ya put in one 4 oz jar of food, and out comes 16 ounces of crap.

Edit: And don't even get me started on their uncanny ability to urinate during the 5 seconds the diaper is off.

12. If you have had that much experience

then you'll know exactly what I mean when I talk about projectile pooping; my son was a master at it. Only parenthood can make you laugh hysterically while you are being shat upon.

13. one of the funniest things I ever encountered

was "helping" my brother change his daugher's diaper.

She shat.

We removed the diaper. She shat a bit more. We cleaned her up and got another diaper ready. She shat a bit more. Etc. Etc. Etc.

5 diapers later, we finally got her all cleaned up. She giggled the whole time, as if it were great fun to see us scream "oh no! She's shitting again!"

[Book Lover]

14. From her perspective, it IS fun

to see two grownups hopping all over each other in a desperate attempt to keep all the poop in one place... Besides, better a laughing baby than a crying baby any day of the week :-) and you have a great story to deeply embarrass her if you ever need to do so (say, when she's an insufferable teenager and has brought over her snotty date)

[Dookus]

15. she JUST turned 13

and believe me, I plan to use this.

4. How do you pronounce that?

Does it sound like "touch" or "couch". :evilgrin:

Inquiring minds and all that... :hi:
