One of the most talked about things about having baby tends to be poop and diaper stories. It is because if you can't laugh about it, you would have to cry! Babies poop a lot. They just do. And the changing of poopy diapers can be traumatic and, at times, horrible. It can also be very funny.

Traumatic and funny diaper stories
My baby girl is as bad as any boy when it comes to peeing on people.
She had been constipated for a day and half. We had tried everything to get it out. i gave her juice and fell asleep leaving dad to tend to her. well, she had a major explosion. (keep in mind, this was the 3rd diaper he's changed at all.) i woke up to find him with her in the floor with her diaper falling off, clothes and blankets soaked, and he looked so confused. HE DID NOT KNOW HOW IT ALL GOT WET!?! poor man. he did get her clean, but was afraid to wrap the diaper tight enough around her. i'll do it myself from now on. LOL!
 

Diaper stories of young and inexperienced parents who never changed a diaper!

At first I laughed that my husband did not want to change diapers. It was funny until I went back to work and was nothing short of exhausted. In the beginning I just kept changing those diapers and did not say anything. Then I started to resent the fact that my husband felt that even though I was working too, he did not have to change diapers. I ended up explaining to my husband how we both worked and believe it or not, I did not want to change diapers either. In the end, he decided he would help out a little bit more by changing a diaper here and there. He changed a few diapers with relative ease but would scream for help if there was anything other than pee in the diaper. I of course would have to come running and clean up and poop and of course finish the diaper change myself. One day I was extremely tired and asked my husband to change the babies diaper and I told him that I did not care what was in it, he was going to change that diaper. My husband decided he would do it and her down on the couch, undid her diaper and proceeded to scream at the site of poop. Unfortunately this would be the time when he would once and for all that it was not just me who found it rude to yell at the site of poop, obviously our baby did too! My husband was holding our daughters legs up with one hand to get the dirty diaper out from underneath her. He opened his mouth to yell about the poop and my daughter let out a squirt of poop that started at his head and as he set her down in fear, the line sprayed down his face, into his mouth and proceeded down his shirt until he had set her down! He has learned to always keep the body parts covered and now he rarely complains about helping I guess because he knows what may happen!
 

Diapers and Politics.
Politicians and diapers have one thing in common. They should both be changed regularly … and for the same reason. Very soon they are all full of shit.

Several months after birth I had one of the worst poopy diaper moments ever. My darling baby girl was suffering from some diarrhea. I had had to change her fairly frequently, and was getting pretty good at the quick change. However, this particular time, the wipes were out of reach. I was reaching out to get them when I felt something wet hit me on the side of my face. I reached up to wipe it off as I turned to look at my girl. I had left the diaper off. As I turned back, I caught another wet glop right in my face. She was projectile pooping right at me! I quickly pulled the diaper up and started trying to clean us both up. My daughter was giggling. The worst part of the whole thing was that my mother was sitting there laughing at me the entire time! Well, at least my mouth was closed….

Pregnancy and parenthood are times of change and new feelings. Feelings are O.K. It is helpful to be able to share with your children, family and friends, and with your health care provider, how you are feeling. And it is important for you to have their support and understanding during your pregnancy and when you take on the job of a new parent. It is important for your baby, too. A baby needs the love and attention of parents, family and friends to grow and develop in healthy ways. And your baby needs the healthy start only you can give by taking care of your own health and following good health habits during your pregnancy. (continue reading…)

The first few days home from the hospital are important for both baby and parents. As parents you will have gone through n intense birth process that is unlike anything else you have ever experienced. As a new mother you will be drained – both emotionally and physically. The father can often have feelings of being overwhelmed by the huge responsibility he now faces. There probably is not much anyone can say or do to help you to fully prepare for what you are about to experience. (continue reading…)

When a baby is born she does not know what is night and what is day. In case you have your first child then (as if you didn’t already know) you should expect to be woken up persistently, no matter what the time, for the first few weeks. Partly, this is due to the fact that a baby’s stomach carries a maximum of three to four hours worth of nutrition. Hence every few hours she will be waking up and crying. Without wanting to sound cruel, you should whenever possible try and impose the fact that night is for sleep from very early on – this does not mean letting her cry when she needs attention but doing things in a way that gives her less attention than she would expect in the daytime (e.g. try and keep the lights off for instance.) You can also try and make her nap a little less in the afternoon time as this will naturally tire her out more during the night time and help her sleep better. (continue reading…)

During the final stage of pregnancy, reality starts to set it. You can feel that change is in the air, and you may wonder whether you’re prepared — emotionally and physically — to deal with it. This chapter gives you advice on how to best prepare for Baby’s arrival, what you may experience during your hospital stay, and how to ease into that transformation from pregnant to parent. Many moms-to-be experience a nesting phase late in pregnancy, during which they can concentrate on little else aside from preparing a home for Baby. And good thing, because you simply will not believe how much stuff a baby needs, not to mention how much he will acquire in the form of gifts over his first few weeks of life. Your home, once a sanctuary for your most beloved material goods, will become Baby’s storage locker. Soon enough, baby clothing, diapering supplies, toys, bottles, pacifiers, and props (his swing, stroller, and bassinet) will be the only visible items in your house — and the only things you’ll care about, anyway.

EVERYONE TALKS ABOUT BONDING. WHAT DOES IT REALLY MEAN?

Bonding refers to the feeling parents have for their young baby, an emotional tug. It can start before birth when you see her on an ultrasound scan or feel her kick. It can also happen when you hear her heartbeat during a prenatal check. Many parents say they feel love for their baby as soon as she is born—but bonding doesn’t always happen this quickly. (continue reading…)

WHAT HAPPENS TO MY BABY AFTER DELIVERY?

Immediately after the delivery, your baby will be checked by the doctor or midwife and will be given an Apgar score. She will also be weighed and measured. If all is well, she will be handed to you to hold and put to the breast if you want to. Your baby will also be given a dose of vitamin K. (continue reading…)

You only need the bare minimum of clothes, diapers, and equipment. Buy most of the baby clothes after the birth so that you get the right size. Even full-term babies vary greatly in weight and length. However, you will need essential items such as a bassinet or cradle, baby cribs, a car seat, a baby carriage or stroller, and a baby bath. (continue reading…)
