Riddle me this...why, after almost 12 weeks of motherhood does it still take me at least 3 diapers and 15 wipes to change a poopy diaper? Let me break it down:
As soon as I smell pee or poop coming from Eilish's diaper I change her. Do not pass go, do not collect $200, I change her right away. I can't think of anything worse then her having a diaper rash because of Mama's laziness. The trouble is, I've got one hell of a nose (Donnie K. keep your nose jokes to yourself) and always smell the poo before Eilish is finished um...finishing. For instance, this afternoon:
1. I smell the poo, Owen smells the poo. There is poo.
2. I remove the dirty diaper and start with the wipes while putting a clean diaper underneath.
3. Eilish starts pooing again.
4. I loosely close diaper #2 and give Eilish some privacy to finish (she was in the playpen).
5. When I think she's finished, that is when she stops with the very serious poo face, I remove diaper #2 and start with the wipes while putting on diaper #3...and she starts pooping again so I loosely close diaper #3 and wait again, again, again for her to finish, wipe her again, again, again and that my friends is how you use 3 diapers and no less than 15 wipes to change the diaper of the person in the house with the smallest bum (Lucy the Cat included).
Being a good mother is really going to mess with our bank account.
