For YEARS afterwards we could all recite it in the car on long trips.<br /><br />My husband informed me that in Lapp society, they just had a hole in the child's trousers and let them go when and where they wanted. Of course, they were a migrant culture . . . that kept reindeer herds. Maybe the smell of the kids was overlooked.SouthLakesMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08822510653198676631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7334921515741798160.post-59846187609440991492017-01-18T11:57:00.726-08:002017-01-18T11:57:00.726-08:00I hear you!

We moved to the floor for safety as well, and now I can say with zero shame that I lay him down and then plant one foot in each armpit, basically pinning him down while changing the poo. It works!!!!SLAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08330035467316994131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7334921515741798160.post-66591995213846759682017-01-17T08:10:16.356-08:002017-01-17T08:10:16.356-08:00Ha ha.

Just to add an antidote from our family - There was the incident of trying to change a peed diaper (so I thought anyway) for my 2 year old about a day after she'd eaten this very obnoxious-colored rainbow ice-cream cone. She was standing, of course, because no laying down diaper changes at that point in toddlerhood. When I took off the diaper, a blue turd rolled across the floor. My brother-in-law turned a little green. It was his floor.

I remember those days and would gladly trade a day in the life of a teenager with ADHD and a 7 year old emotional time bomb with sensory issues for a poopy diaper and a wiggly baby! Much love to you and that adorable, sweet boy!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07971371501195330922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7334921515741798160.post-18501938873287113222017-01-16T18:10:11.620-08:002017-01-16T18:10:11.620-08:00I had 6 wiggle worms, but Jake the Snake ( now alm...I had 6 wiggle worms, but Jake the Snake ( now almost 24 years old) was the hardest diaperer. We resorted to "the leg", a big-time wrestling move to keep him under control. I'd literally sit on the floor and put my leg over his tummy, pinning him done. Then I could raise his legs and get down to business.

(Make sure you're as entertaining and fast as possible.) As soon as he's clean, set him free. Then sit on a chair or sofa and put the clean diaper over one knee, absorbent side up. Set baby on your knee and fasten diaper. Perfectly positioned clean diaper every time.Jameglohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04318874227930116090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7334921515741798160.post-69809202481340413682017-01-16T14:39:23.533-08:002017-01-16T14:39:23.533-08:00Are you in my house?

I am a grandma and granchildren don't do things like that. You see , they are preciously perfect little bundles of joy! I am 61 so I have forgotten my own babie's diaper dilemnas. That is a lie! Personally ,my favorite was them putting their cute little hand IN their diaper! UGH!! Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02155139280603389593noreply@blogger.com
