An Evening Surprise

Last night, Nylabear graced us with a special surprise as we were heading to bed. We took her up to the room and we were snuggling and hugging and kissing her before she went down to sleep. This is when Nyla started her surprise. A little smelly surprise for her mama and daddy before bedtime. We started to change her diaper because there was a little poo-poo in it.

"Oh Paul, maybe she's just starting to have harder poops and they're not as big--"

I should have kept my mouth shut. As we're wiping off her buns, she unleashed the poo. Holy moly, it was everywhere! And it seemed nonstop! NONSTOP. There was no warning signs for this either; no grunting, no groaning, no red face, no white knuckles. It was like Nyla was just taking a walk in the park, relaxing, and pooping at the same time.

At first we tried to clean it up as it was coming out--horrific idea. We couldn't pull the wipes out fast enough. So we ended up just throwing up our hands and letting her finish. Of course we had to move her around the blanket that she was on so she wouldn't get poop all over herself. So she would poop, we scooted her to another section, more poop, move again.

I thought the clean-up would be the hardest part of this whole scene; I was wrong. Trying to get a onesie with poo all over it off of an infant is ridiculous. As a tip for other moms, the best way to do this is to roll the soiled clothing up so that only a clean section is showing, and then slide the onesie off. Paul's solution was to cut it off. Maybe next time!

Oh Nylabear, you continue to amaze us...and by "amaze" I mean "totally gross us out." lol It's a good thing we love you. :)
