I used a pee-pee teepee on LO while changing his diaper in the MOTN and accidentally closed the diaper up with the pee-pee teepee still on him. The next diaper change was very surprising. I found a poo-poo teepee.

I bring dd in the bathroom with me while I shower. The fan usually puts her to sleep in the rnp, so when I'm done showering, I turn the timer on the fan to an hour...she sleeps while I clean or do other random household things.
I was running out of things to talk about or say to LO during the day (I think more than speak!) so I read him Amy Poehler's book Yes, Please. Not exactly baby friendly....
Also, right now I am trying to nicely force a pacifier while he's in the swing because my arms hurt....

So basically, my kid sleeps in a bathroom.
Pshh I consider this being resourceful I do the same

Brady pissed in his own face and I just wiped him off and went about my day. I remembered this incident 2 days later when my husband asked when I had bathed him last. I just started laughing.
Last night, my husband was changing Brady's diaper on the bed and Brady sharted on the bed. I told him just to wiped the sheets clean with wipes and throw a towel over it because I was too tired to change the sheets in the MOTN.
What a great idea! Kind of a throwback to our FFFC!
DD was doing tummy time, and I was taking a video on my phone and narrating her various kicks and scooches (I'm sometimes THAT parent), and she turns her head and her ENTIRE face was covered in spit up. I hadn't even noticed that she spit up because I was too preoccupied with my commenting to notice.
Just for the record, we put clean sheets on the bed today, so I'm not sleeping in baby shart tonight.
For what it's worth, I just noticed there's still a small spot on the bed from the same thing a week ago. It's on the very edge of the bed but still, not something I would have expected pre-parenthood!
When I get frustrated with LO I sometimes say mean things. There's usually a lot of swearing involved but said in a sweet voice.
When I'm really irritated, I whisper sweetly that I'd like to leave my lo with the wolves. I kiss and stroke him while I'm doing this but still. I'm probably going to have to pay for his therapy.
I have mean nicknames for LO. When he's screaming for food and grabbing my hair or hitting me as I try to get settled to nurse, I tell him, "Calm down, Chunky."
He is also known as Chunky Monkey Chunkmeister Fullerene Stinkasaurus Rex Turdbird (DH's nm for him) Squirmy Worm (when in his sleeping bag)
I've written down the times LO has woken up, the type of cry she had, and what got her to stop crying in hopes of getting payback when she's a teenager. She's made it a habit of screaming bloody murder at 3 am because she wants me to sit up and hold her while she sleeps.

I call Brady Captain ShittyPants because he poops so often.
***I have used that nickname so often in text messages to my best girlfriends that it shows up as a option in my autocorrect now. So wrong...
DS goes on the floor in front of the shower. I lay a towel down & prop him on the boppy....
Crib with the mobile on. He can enjoy his reflection surrounded by moving fish and tinny music and I get a shower. If it would go for 20 minutes instead of 4 I'd use it to keep LO secure and entertained while I took a nap.

I just woke up in a daze and realized Sawyer had been sleeping for 6hrs, our longest stretch yet. I laid my hand on his chest but couldn't feel if he was breathing. So in a bit of a panic I poked his ribs a little to see if he squirmed and of course he did but he also woke up pissed and hungry. I just screwed up my first chance of STTN by jabbing my finger into my LO's ribs :/.

I do the same thing. Only DS doesn't really fall asleep anymore but he just hangs in there while momma showers.

I always wake up and check LO for breathing and if I don't see any signs I stick my finger in his mouth because it's the fastest way to rouse him. He always gets pissed and then wakes up like what the hell now feed me woman.

Add me to the bouncer camp! I would love it if he fell asleep in it. I would leave him in there.
When DS falls asleep in the car, I leave him the garage while I bring in everything and calm the dogs down. I do this in hopes of napping while he naps.
I do lock the door leading outside, just in case. We live in a very safe suburb, but still
