Diaper Humor: Poop Stories

One of the most talked about things about having children tends to be poop stories. I think it is because if you can't laugh about it, you would have to cry! Babies poop a lot. They just do. And the changing of poopy diapers can be traumatic and, at times, horrible. It can also be funny.

When I gave birth to my first child, I was a young and completely inexperienced 19 year old. I had never held a baby before and had definitely never changed a diaper! Luckily, when my daughter had her very first poopy diaper in the hospital, my Aunt happened to stop by and rescue me. I was pretty panicked and had no idea what to do! My aunt changed the diaper and taught me how to do it myself. But, my daughter had just started with the poopy diaper drama.

Several months later I had one of the worst poopy diaper moments ever. My darling baby girl was suffering from some diarrhea. I had had to change her fairly frequently, and was getting pretty good at the quick change. However, this particular time, the wipes were out of reach. I was reaching out to get them when I felt something wet hit me on the side of my face. I reached up to wipe it off as I turned to look at my girl. I had left the diaper off. As I turned back, I caught another wet glop right in my face. She was projectile pooping right at me!

It was all I could do not to vomit.

I quickly pulled the diaper up and started trying to clean us both up. My daughter was giggling. The worst part of the whole thing was that my mother was sitting there laughing at me the entire time! Well, at least my mouth was closed....
