Just a quick one tonight, and I must remind you, if you can't handle poop I suggest you stop reading.
Ethan has a bath every other night when Kelly is away. Tonight was 'bath' night. (I don't like bath night, i'd much rather just throw them both in bed quickly). Now I bet your thinking 'Oh Ethan pooped in the tub, big deal, that has happened to me'. That is not what happened on this poopy night. Ethan generally poops one time a day, usually around 10am. I usually take his diaper off in the bathroom and just throw it in the trash can (because it is usually just pee). As I was taking off his diaper tonight he said 'Poop'. Before I had a chance to quickly put the diaper back on and take him to the change table.....
S-P-L-A-T
Large ball of poop splattered on the floor, freaking disgusting, Ethan took off giggling with a big poopy butt, Man I didn't know which way to go, chase the poopy butt boy or clean the splattered floor so the cat didn't step in it (Fabian usually sits on the side of the bath while Ethan baths so he was in there). I chose to chase Ethan. After I got him cleaned up I cleaned up the bathroom.
I will from now on, take Ethan to the change table to change him before bath.
Now for those of you who are quietly saying in your minds 'Ethan is 2, shouldn't he be starting potty training'? Thanks for your secret thought, we are working on it, Ethan though is not ready, I am his mom I know what is happening, he will do it when he is ready. :) Thank you for your time.
Don't worry. Ronan isn't ready either. He's violently opposed to potty training. If you take off his diaper, he will go and get another one, bring it to you, and cry until you put it on him.
ReplyDeleteIf you ask him, "Do you want to go potty?" he will shake his head "No."
We will move forward when they will let us, right? :D
