I have been trying to find time to write you this story for a while now, but have had not any. So, finally, here goes, even though I still don't have the time. Parenting is hard.

About three weeks ago I was staying home with Amelia after Amanda started back to work since we had not gotten into daycare yet. (We have gotten in now and they're wonderful and Amelia seems happy with them.) The first few days were fine except for the fact that I had to teach Amelia that immediate gratification is not a constant in life. Up to that point, if she was hungry Amanda would just pull out a boob and Amelia could eat until her heart's content and then fall asleep. Well, while Dad has boobs, they don't serve much function apart from growing lots of neat hair.

So the first day she wakes up hungry and does her little hungry cry. As I am not producing milk personally, I had to pick her out of her crib, take her to the kitchen, take a bottle out of the fridge, heat up a glass of water, put the bottle in the water and let it warm, re-heat the water, put the bottle back in and, finally, voila, we had a bottle. The problem with all this is it takes time. Amelia does not understand time or the physics of thermodynamics and heat transfer, so she just kept getting madder and madder as I waited for the bottle to get warm. She screamed and screamed and just made me feel like an ass. Then the second half of the issue is that she is used to being able to eat as much as she wants. So, while the bottle satiated her, she was starving two hours later and the whole process started over again.

Well, she and I had adjusted to each other by Thursday and things were going well. She was full and happy and playing on the floor. I looked at her leg and noticed some baby poo coming out around her diaper. This is not unusual. If you have not been around many babies you should know -- because I didn't -- that diapers are only a general area in which poo can go, but hardly a catch-all. Depending on the angle of the baby at the time of the poo, as well as the quantity and force of the poo, it can go lots of places.

So, noticing the bit of poo emerging from the diaper, I picked up little Amelia from the floor where she was happily playing and took her in to change her. As I began removing layers of clothing (overalls and onesie) in an effort to get to the offending diaper, it came to my attention that we were dealing with an über-poo: one that shoots out of the diaper and up the baby. Now, typically the poo flow goes either up the back or, more rarely, up the front. But this one had coated the entire baby from chin to thighs, front and back -- and had an overwhelming smell of malt vinegar.

Now by this time I had been through many diaper changes, but this was above and beyond my experience. The smell and sight of the gooey mess defeated my defenses and I began to retch. Next thing I knew I had a mouth full of regurgitated cold pizza and coffee (standard Dad breakfast) and was racing to the can to expel said mixture; but I came up short and hurled all over the hall. Meanwhile, little Amelia is laying on her changing table naked and covered in poo, so I run back to take care of her. I wipe her up as best I can with wet wipes. While I'm doing that, Milo notices the big smorgasbord lying in the hall. I run and chase him out of it and clean up as much as I quickly can. Then I go back to Amelia and get her little bathtub ready and plop her in it.

With her secure and soaking, I grab some wet paper towel and go back to my mess, which the dog has rediscovered and is happily licking up. I chase him away, give the floor another once over, and go back to Amelia. I clean her up and put her on her changing table to dry. As she is lying there I wipe down the walls, spot mop the floor, and then go back and get her dressed. All of this took place in about twenty minutes.

All is well in fatherhood land. Amelia is going in to work with me tomorrow since we have no daycare on Sunday and Amanda is working at the hospital, which is taking in patients from the now-underwater New Orleans area. We have determined that the overalls Amelia wore that day are obviously cursed, because she has had three other über-poos while wearing them, one of which was on her first day at daycare. Hope you enjoyed my baby poo story and I hope all is well in Japan.

I was just wondering if Milo is a Pug.Those little guys are poop machines.I hope he is house broken.If not they poop everywhere and anywhere except outside.

MegaDump (100) -- 09.11.2005

A baby young enough to still be breast fed and wearing diapers should not have been "left to soak" without your supervision...

Fart Poopie (not verified) -- 09.11.2005

You're right, MegaDump. A baby shouldn't be left to soak. It only takes an inch of water for a baby to drown. Also, a child old enough to sit on her own is usually old enough to roll around. She shouldn't have been left up on the changing table unsupervised. She could have fallen.
Who cares if you puked in the hall and the dog is eating it. Make sure your baby is clean and safe first, then take care of the mess outside.
I've had a lot of experience with children and blowouts (or uber-poops, if you will). They sometimes crap all the way up their back leaving nothing on the diaper. Go figure that one out.
Beside the child endangerment, this was a funny story.

Bilgepump (1734) -- 09.11.2005

I can't relate to this story at all, since my parents had me nuetered. (and a good thing too, for all of you.)

Logjam (2453) -- 09.11.2005

Bilgepump. I think you mean they gave you a lobotomy.

Bilgepump (1734) -- 09.11.2005

Nah, I was born with hypocerebela dysplasia

Bilgepump (1734) -- 09.11.2005

oops, its hypocerebral dysplasia, but what do expect?

daphne (3680) -- 09.11.2005

I, too, was a bit afraid when I read the unattended changing table and bath parts, but he could have had seat belts on the changing table and one of those bath buddies seats. And, I didn't notice an age for the baby.

Well, he sounds like a pretty decent dad anyway. Alot of dads would be swearing and freaking out about a kid crying. And, I pictured a pug, too! (milo and otis movie)

I guess my comment is on the overalls. Thomas, when we was a critter, had these overalls jumpsuit thing that were a bit crimping on the underside. I mean, they pulled on his butt. When he pooped, there was no real room for the poop to move into on the bottom of the diaper, as the "ass pocket" that most babywear comes with on the butt was absent. Cheaply made or not well-designed? Who knows. The end result was always poop that went up his back and through the legs.

I would suggest tossing the overalls and being more discerning when picking clothes out. Don't be afraid to toss stuff with no "ass pocket". Buy pants a larger size. And, I think this dad will do just fine. How many men I know who would not have bathed the baby, but waited until mom came home fill up more than one hand of fingers.

I dunno, maybe it's just me: kid poop stories don't cut the cheese...

we all know and accept the facts that babies and young children poop in public, poop there pants, etc.

who cares.

Frank the Pug (not verified) -- 09.11.2005

Frank the Pug (not verified) -- 09.11.2005

Slow day for news at PR?

Houlapoop (not verified) -- 09.14.2005

Man... can you really tell that he wasn't paying enough attention to his kid while in the tub or on the changing table from this story? If hes just around the corner cleaning up, and the baby is in the kiddie tub splashing around, big freaking deal. He didn't specify how often he checked on the child during his cleaning.

Chad Gervais (1) -- 09.14.2005

If you can't deal with shit dont have kids, my mother says i was awful as a baby

Big Doodie (not verified) -- 09.14.2005

Yes, babies crap all over the place occasionally. Better that it happened at home than when you were out in public. I hope you didn't tell your wife that you left Amelia unattended :)

Anonymous Coward (not verified) -- 09.14.2005

Unrelated to the poop story, but here goes...My kid puked on me once....I was wearing sweatpants, and sitting on the couch. SOMEHOW, I'll never know the exact details, the puke either flowed down into my pants, or was absorbed by them. You have not experienced parenting until your nutsack has been batter dipped in hot formula puke. No feeling quite like it...and it was not a good one!

Squatter (1) -- 09.15.2005

Okay, sure-- all babies poop, but under some circumstances, it can be amusing.

The first time i was left alone to supervise my 6-month old nephew, my sister had already changed baby's diaper, fed him, and he was asleep in the baby swing. My sister's words were "I'm only going out for thirty minutes, so there shouldn't be any problems." (in retrospect: BIG RED FLAG!!)

I have a mental picture of how my nephew uber-pooped while asleep in the baby swing... causing copious amounts of fecal flinging. I thought my sister was going to kill me, but she LAUGHED when she came back and saw me bumbling around trying to change a diaper while standing next to a feces-filled swing.

-- I use a squatter, and I love it!

I think anybody who has had to clean a crap soaked baby to be thankful it isnt a crap soaked adult. My best friend works as a residential counsellor for adults with physical and mental disabilities. On one of her very first shifts she entered the room of a resident and the smell of shit was absolutely unbearable.

This particular resident compulsively masturbates, alone or in front of random people. So the staff are required to dress her in a type of jumpsuit that buttons in back and put a belt on her backwards. She also wears a diaper. This evening she had been feeling particularily randy and she masturbated on top of her clothing to such as degree that when she crapped herself while doing it she managed to smear adult shit literally from her vagina to her breasts. My friend had the unfortunate luck of happening upon this situation and was required to wash the patient and her shit soaked clothing.

My friend told me the hardest part was cleaning the crap out of the patient's belly button while trying to avoid vomitting all over the patient and herself.

not that amusing, but ok...

runninggrrl (not verified) -- 09.28.2005

I remember being 12 years old and babysitting my little baby cousin. She made a very interesting sound and then the smell hit. I went to grab a new diaper and stuff and when I got back, her outfit was covered in poo. I carefully took it off and when I got the diaper off, she pooped again and explosive baby poo went EVERYWHERE. I swear, kids have the worst timing.

Winnie the Poo (74) -- 10.05.2005

Been there, done that. Our older son is now 4, but we had our second baby 2 months ago, so you can imagine the amouts of poop & diapers we've seen. Just starting off as new parents (it was one of the first diapers we'd ever changed from my first son) my wife received a direct spay hit of yellowish goo all over her face, hair, eyglasses... everything above her waist was smeared, covered, splattered.. The pure pressure of this hellish geyser was incredible... I mean The Exorcist type.
We've lerned from those experiences, and improved techniques since. Still anything can happen with babies.

Not Into Baby Shit... (not verified) -- 12.05.2005

My God! Baby shit has to be the worst substance in the universe! It has a unique odor of such magnitude that it is roughly equivalent in strength to cow shit, dog shit, cat shit, and a dead rotting carcass all mixed together. It takes a lot of love to want to get close to one of those.

emmy mum of 4! (not verified) -- 08.24.2006

that story is nothing..a walk in the park! my 3rd child (2 years old)has decorated himself, the walls and toys and the dog with poo!

I have been reading a book about a guy that taught chimps to use sign language. His baby chimp changing stories are very similar to this one. I am re-affirmed in my commitment to abstain from fatherhood.

Yes, GGG, that is totally awesome! I wouldn't do like emmy and retaliate like that for the poop decoration. I'd do something much, much worse...

Around here, our women poop, and it stinks too.

I don't blame you. I feel the same way about being a mother.
