Are You Ready To Be A Parent

[SoMDGirl42]

I know...I'll grab a goat, you grab an octopus..and I will meet you at foodlion.

Which Foodlion? I'll meet you both there with a plastic bag of vomit I'll pour over both of you and hand you each a shiatty diaper to carry around.

If you can handle all the stares you get while walking your goat through the store smelling like puke and shiat, you're almost ready to be a parent.

I get comments like this all the time (pertaining to poop and vomit) or teased about changing diapers...I laugh. Hard. Because I worked at hospitals for years...and after changing morbidly obese man diapers from patients with Cdiff and yeast infections...a little baby vomit/poop is going to be old hat.

That is too funny, and true! Although, try it with twins!!

I have 7 month old twins & a 7 y/o son, I go through the above daily.

I guess you do have a bit of a head start. I still distinctly remember a high school trip to the hospital for a "do you want to work here" type of career day. One of the nurses said, if you're going to work here you have to be OK with the 5 P's: Piss, puke, phlegm, puss, and poop.

No surprise that was my last visit to the hospital till my kids were born. I work budget support.

That was you! you have soft hands.

Thanks for the laugh! I love the sleep deprivation lesson, perfect.

Lesson #4......ugh. My son will continue to eat in the kitchen until he moves out.
