Baby blow-out in Target

Thursday, January 24, 2008

Sometimes, I just can’t believe that so much poop can come out of one little baby. 

Today, she had the mother of all blow-outs, in Target, no less  She must have known that I was out of good diapers and had her strapped into an inferior brand that was fairly busting at the seams anyway, since she’s gone up a size.  Apparently, she also knew that poop on a white background makes a nice contrast.

I mean, seriously, I think there was more poop out of the diaper than inside it—how is that possible?

No  wonder everyone in Target kept giving me a wide berth.

 I’ve been thinking of switching to cloth diapers, but then this happens, and I am petrified of permanently defiling every single outfit she owns.  Ugh.

The funniest thing?  I call my husband to tell him what happened, and he says, “You know, those diapers aren’t very good.  They must be some kind of pee-only diapers.” 

Pee-only diapers?  Because that’s a fad that would really sweep the nation.  Seriously, if anyone really decides to get cute and market such a beast, I will cheerfully mail them every single blow-out item I can find.  By the time they cook a little in the mail, the scent alone ought to be registrable as a national weapon.

    Actually, we had far fewer blowouts in cloth than in ’sposies. Seriously, get that baby butt in some cloth. Life will be better, pinky swear!

    What she said. In about 3 years of cloth dispaering I NEVER had a blowout.
