My husband causes blowouts!
"Jill" wrote in message . com...
but this is THE calmest, happiest I have ever been! My mom asked me if she has been rattling my nerves, since it's a big adjustment and that would be normal...I can honestly say that no, she has not at all (yet :-) ) ........so far it just feels so sweet! How truly wonderful, Jill! Continue to enjoy this precious time with your newborn ...C. |

My husband causes blowouts!
"Kim E." wrote LOL about the plumber's crack!! Hmmm, this sounds suspiciously like FITGOC syndrome - feigning incompetence to get out of chores!!! This syndrome is particularly prevalent in males, and there has been documented corrolation between manifestation of symptoms coinciding with marriage and the birth of children. Just a thought! Lol!! Hmmm....he HAS said "Oh well, I will let YOU change all the diapers since I do it wrong!"...but then again, he voluntarily changes her and changes her when he has her and she needs it without being asked to, and he does clean her up, so, I can't say for sure. But I CAN say that I have made him well aware of the blowouts and he still doesn't seem to get that diaper secure! He thinks it's funny. He told me blowouts don't bother him because he's worked with much more noxious substances than baby poo and he thinks it's funny that I am squeamish. I am actually not that squeamish but I AM kind of nitpicky about germs. I am not that bad though, but I do wipe the changing pad after every changing and wash blankets if they have any spitup on them etc...I just see no reason not to if it makes me feel better! lol |

This : syndrome is particularly prevalent in males, [ . . . ] but not exclusively. Very true. I admit to using tactics of my own to get out of some diaper changings so far (don't tell my husband!)...I could get away with it in the early days after labor but now I can't use the old "I am in too much pain, could yuo help me out honey?" line, since I feel much better and it's obvious. lol. |

My husband causes blowouts!
But.,.....he can't put a diaper on to contain things, to save his life. OMG. Every time he diapers her and hands her to me, she has a plumber's crack or soon will.......she just now had a blow out while I was feeding her from her a.m. diaper change a couple hours ago, all over the bed. (My bed, as I was side-lying nursing.)..... Jill, We have been co-sleeping since the start and have only had to change the sheets once because of baby-related fluids!! The layers under the baby (and me) a waterproof pad under the sheet to protect mattress pad, then a large "bassinet-sized" waterproof flannel pad under the baby (these are great, we use them everywhere), a large cloth diaper under the babe's head and across to under my leaky boobs, and one more cloth diaper to catch the leakage from the top breast while he's nursing from the bottom. I was so worried about having to change the sheets all the time from co-sleeping, but this works great for us! The only thing that I've found to cure blowouts . . cloth diapers. Sounds like you are really enjoying little Rachel!! Congratulations, Hannah |
