My almost-4-month-old has skills. I believe he was born with another hole in his butt. No joke. The kid can poop out a diaper faster than a cowboy quick draw.
I shall henceforth call him "Quick Poop McGee".
And the outfit changes. Ohhh the outfit changes! A good day is staying within a two-three outfit changes range. A bad day is anything more than four.
You think I kid. I'm totally serious.
(You know it's bad when you base your good days on not having to change so many diapers/do too much laundry, and your bad days as monumental diaper changes, airing out the house, and loads of laundry.)
You really know its bad when you're at the bottom-of-the-barrel outfits-wise and you have to pull stuff like this out:
Looks like a baby prison-jumpsuit or somethin'. Nice socks, right? Right? Yeah, well they matched the first outfit. He's now in his third. Matching isn't an option any longer. Keeping him in clothes is the mission priority now.
Dear Santa,Oh crap! (literally) I guess we're onto outfit number four today already....
Send a faster washer and dryer, or a cork. Or somethin'. STAT!
Sincerely,
One tired laundry-doin, massive-diaper-changin' momma

LOL!!! I remember those days... ;-)
Hang in there!
Maybe you need different diapers...(?)
My first was like that. I remember just throwing several outfits away, because I had no interest in trying to salvage them. I know someone who used to put a newborn diaper inside a regular diaper, to help get all the poop. I think it came halfway out of the diaper up the back, since that's where the blowouts were happening.
I remember those days well. After just getting finished with diapers, I don't want to go back. I guess that's what parenthood is - the good, the bad and the poop! lol!
Oh the days and they will begin again soon! With two others also in diapers -- this should be fun! But I do love the new cloth diapering system that I am using!
Oh no :(
I remember those days.
Have you thought about changing diaper brands? ;) I so remember these issues. It's the sole reason I went to white and only white socks for awhile. I also went to the "dirty" and "not dirty enough to change" philosophy of laundry -- for spit ups at least, not poop. Here's hoping he figured out the control mechanism soon!
And thanks so much for stopping by my blog yesterday on my SITS day. I had so much fun and am still wading through wonderful comments. I hope you enjoyed yourself and that you come back to visit soon!
LOL oh my 5 month old little DIVA is right there exploding outta them diapers too!! But man the small earthquake like explosions before the full release of the bog of eternal stench into the diaper is quite rough as well...and quiteembarrassing!!!!
This is one of those events I'm happy I'm a guy :D I'm glad there're wives on these planet because they know to do the hard work :P Congrats!
