Good soup! posted:First time trying solid food this week and she loves it, just destroyed a little rear end bowl of oatmeal Lol, I've been peed and vomited on, but I've managed to avoid poo poo. Scooped turds out of baths though. Getting to solids is great, unfortunately it also means you start getting real poo now, which is less great.

I know it's a big joke about kids being gross and they piss and poo poo and vomit everywhere but I don't think I ever got any directly on me. I've definitely had one of mine start peeing while on his back for a diaper change but it just went back on their belly. lol idiots. also neither of my kids have ever thrown up aside from car sickness. my one kid who gets car sick reliably now has a whole routine where he barfs into a special bag we got with a big wide plastic ring at the top. he's a pro at it now.

babies mean you up the number of fluids on your clothes before you feel like you need to immediately change, from one to at least two new babies let you discover just where on the hierarchy your personal needs (like having to pee) really are

poo poo POST MALONE posted:I know it's a big joke about kids being gross and they piss and poo poo and vomit everywhere but I don't think I ever got any directly on me. A couple weeks ago I took my son (6 yo) to baseball and about 20 minutes in to the hour he runs off the field and to me and says he has to go to potty. Now everything is still closed cause of covid so theres no place nearby we can go, so i walk him over to a large secluded bush and i tell him "ok hurry up" so he pulls down his pants and underwear and bends over and i just flip the gently caress out yelling "woah woah what are you doing!!?!" "but i have to poop!" "no no no no, i thought you just had to pee, you hold it till we're done and we'll go to Target afterwards" which thankfully he was able to do that was one of many "wtf" moments I experienced as a parent, just as a thing I had no loving clue could happen, and that i had to explain to him please dont take a poo poo in a public park, even if no one is directly watching you

Infant cereal is bad anyways, when they are old enough to eat food they can eat real food. Otherwise it's just getting in the way of the good good milk that's good for their body.

Baby is in the hospital with RSV and still breastfeeding so my wife has to stay there with her while I stay at home with the three year old. This stinks. New kid is pretty miserable and there isn't anything we can do about it except suck her nose every couple hours. Not worried about her dying or long term effects or anything but the hospital support is the best option for the baby. Feeling pretty helpless.

No idea if the Gerber puffs are also contaminated by heavy metals (probably), but, uh: quote:There are no limits for arsenic in most other baby foods, nor are there any limits for other heavy metals in most foods marketed for babies and small children. Thank god she's being weaned and will be on to normal food soonish. My homemade sourdough is already her favorite thing, so I should probably focus on making more of that.

i never really bothered with cereals for kids because feeding your kid bland and flavorless poo poo feels like such a waste to me. i just let my kids gnaw/suck on a portion of whatever it was we were eating and never had any issues. it's also pretty fun to see what flavors infants and toddlers latch onto, because in my experience they're not as picky as older kids. when my first kid was 1 she absolutely adored pickled ginger and scarfed that poo poo down anytime we had some on hand.

I am TERRIFIED of forgetting they're back there but I also have to check that the door is locked and the oven is off half a dozen times before I can leave the house so it might be related to that.

Get your kids one of those geofencing bracelets tagged to your phone, then one day you'll get an alarm and find out your kid is either having adventures with new friends Donatello and Michaelangelo or it was somehow flushed down the toilet.
