Here is a sample of one of the reasons that becoming a parent requires an incredibly strong stomach:
1. Baby Poop. Many of us remember the sweet, milky
smell of our newborns as they cuddled against our chests. I, too,
remember this smell fondly. A smell I remember less fondly is that of a
diaper full of stinking, loose, mustard colored shit. But, we parents
do our duty (no pun intended) and change diaper after diaper full of the
stuff, filling receptacles in our homes full of literal crap.
I settled my darling 2-week-old daughter onto a changing pad laid
down on the ottoman in my living room. I was prepared with wipes,
diapers, ointments, and cloths to pat dry her precious little bum. I
removed her wet diaper, relieved that it contained only pee. I gathered
her tiny ankles into my hand and lifted them to clean her as she let
loose a small sigh…and a jet powered stream of fecal matter that
splattered across my shirt, turning it into a disgusting man’s Jackson
Pollack. Did I mention that the aforementioned stream also splattered
through my hair and across the couch cushions? How adorable!
