Well ladies, it seems today's baby care lesson for Roland and me was "The True Definition of a Poo-splosion". We've had some 'incidents' before, but NOTHING compares to this afternoon.
We'd had a visit from our midwife, and everything was great - Erin had even gained 340 grams since her last weigh in two weeks ago. She'd had a good feed too, as well as a bit of a 'top up', and then decided she wanted to be awake - so mommy put her in her bouncer, which seemed to work well enough. After a while however, she started to grizzle a bit and Daddy went to pick her up... which was when he said something like "Hey, how come her jumpsuit is all wet... wait... the bouncer is wet too... oh no !!" I think the pictures tell the rest of the story pretty well - enjoy ! The carnage ! 
Super Daddy to the rescue... 
However, Erin is not too impressed by all the fuss. 
Ultimately, it was easier to just strip her and put her in the tub - we were going to bathe her tonight anyway ! 
As you can see, Miss Erin quite enjoys bathtime. 
All clean and tidy !

Gorgeous photos! But I'm with the others - the more that goes in the more that comes out! And they get to a stage where they won't go for a couple of days and you are too scared to leave the house coz you just KNOW as soon as you do they're going to explodee!
A couple of times I had to hose Maya down in the laundry sink before I could eveb put her in the bath... -------------  Maya Grace (28/02/03)

Oooh yeah we had a few like that too! The worst ones I reckon, are when you efficiently go to clean the explosion and then they decide they weren't quite finished!
Our old house had a very suspicious yellow mark on the carpet that stretched from nearly one side of the room to the other, after a particularly violent 3 part poo! ------------- Mel, Mummy to E: 6, B: 4 and:

I have to second everyone else about it getting worse! I still remeber the first nappy change after Alex started on solids.....Poos from exclusively breastfed babies don't really stink so it was a huge shock when Alex started on solids.
And do I dare say that I have had some really bad ones lately from Alex. I discovered that raisins don't digest they just get rehydrated on the trip from the mouth to the nappy  ------------- Mum to Alex (11), Blaire (10) & Erika (8) and Damien (6) Successful HWB VBA2Cs! Soon to be surrogate |

Don't worry, I think I've told Jax the story before.
I'm not sure if it has been exagerrated over time but it seemed to be an awful lot more of an explosion. (Remember - she hadn't pooed for 10 days before-hand!!!) So yes Jax, just be VERY glad that Erin exploded at home. |

Erin is such a cutie (yes even if she is covered in poo)...and welldone dad!!! My hubby wont even go near when she had an explosion...and I agree with all that explosions get worse much worse!!
And you will find more often than not that, if they are sitting down the explosion is worse. My most wonderful memory of that is us driving to Wellington, Zaara in her Carseat and BAM!!! I had to use half a packet of wipes..... ...eeeeewwwww ------------- http://lilypie.com">

LOL on the raisins... and there's always that one that they didn't eat but rather dropped down their front where it works its way into the nappy... so there are all these rehydrated raisens and that one wrinkled one! ------------- Becca, mum of 2 girls & 3 boys |

Raisins are at least in the food group range...I remember Sean digging into the wax crayons at daycare when he was just about 2...his nappies for days afterwards were rainbow flakes of all sorts of colours mixed in with the usual smelly solid food poos. ------------- |

I've said this before... (but as usual will say it again!)
I can tell when Hannah has been painting at daycare as her nappy is full of blue or green or purple poos! Very colourful! (The funniest day was when they painted with glitter paint. Interesting!) |

yep Ayja has had more than her fair share of explosions lately as well as many rainbow poos. The thing i hate the most though, is that she likes to eat sand, and i mean.. when she is in the sandpit she burrys her face in the sand and shakes it around - if she's had a really good play inthe sandpit sometimes we will get a nappy the next day that is exclusively sandmainly, and boy does it make her bottom RED.. i feel so mean trying to clean her up without scraping the sand all over her bottom!
Ayja went through a time about a week ago where she would explode a lot.. cos she goes off playing she'd come back and I'd go to change her and she'd been sitting on the wrong side or bouncing around and ewwwwwww .. am very glad that she wears stockings under her pants alot of the time to stay warm at the mo - cos it usually contains it.
And i definately agree that Miss Erin is just loking so gorgeous  ------------- Janine and her 2 cool chicks, Paris & Ayja

Hehe Jax, Andrew used to pee on Nick all the time. He first did it while we were still in the hospital (and since we were only there for 12 hours, it wasn't like he had loads of opportunities). I still stand by what I said yesterday, it was a warm-up, amatuer effort on her behalf...if it's not in the hair, it's not a full poo-splosion! Give her time, I'm sure that there'll be another medal-winning effort soon enough. ------------- |

I'm just waiting for the next one really, it's bound to be soon as we are on our own at home during the day, and Dad won't be around to take over LOL That said she did pee on me after her bath Sunday night, again wrapped up in her towel just as I was about to put her back down on the changetable... I wondered why the bath was leaking and how that was possible, before I realised it wasn't the bath leaking but my baby ------------- Jacquie - Mama to Erin, 13.07.06 - Chief Cat Chaser & Marmite Sammie Eater
