Things that float in the tub

I mentioned recently that Princess and BamBam are so addicted to blueberries that they will eat them until they literally poop them whole.

They were sharing a bath last night. I was sitting with them in the bathroom reading a magazine while they played. Truly the only times I get to read a magazine these days is when they are in the tub or when BamBam decides to attempt a rare poop on the potty.

I get pulled out of Martha Stewart’s world of things I’d love to have time to do for Christmas, but don’t…to Princess screaming:

MOMMY, BamBam pooped!!!

OH, YES…HE DID.

I look into the tub expecting to see a lone floaty…instead I see that he had diarrhea…and the kicker…a random floating blueberry in the water.

*gag* Bleach is my new best friend.

I almost don’t want to ask if this has happened to you. I’m still feeling like I want to throw up and your stories might send me over the edge.

I said almost. Go ahead. I’d love to hear your gross bathtub stories. Leave a comment. Please? My kid can’t be the only one pooping in the tub? Can he?

Oh, no! I once had to take my little girl up to the tub to strip her down and give her a quick afternoon bath after she had upchucked green beans. While I'm hosing her down, she decides to poop. So, here I am, squealing like I'm 11, wrapping her up in a towel, hauling her to the shower. Got her cleaned off, dressed, and down for a nap. Rinsed out the transport towel and soaked it in Spray 'n Wash. Then, cleaned out the tub, retching and gagging the entire time. Oh, yes, bleach is our friend. I'm right there with you, hon!

Yes. We have had lots of poop in our bath tub. I heart BLEACH SOFT SCRUB. We are friends!

A friend, ahem friend, has a story where two kids are in the tub and one poops. One of the kids, as fast the parent began to leap into action, vomited into the tub which was now a poop throw up extravaganza. I also think one of the kids had poop on their face and possibly their mouth...YUCK!

I knew I shouldn't have been cruising blogs while eating dinner...

Oh dear lord. Sorry! I've only ever had pee in the tub (God please don't let saying that jinx me!!!)

What a mess. You get some sort of extra Mommy points for that.

Blueberries are really good for them though.

Oh my! Tooo Funny. I haven't had the pleasure of any floaters yet but what did happy once over the summer is he pooped so much it over flowed out the back of his diaper and he got it on his hands and spread it all over his sheets the bumper the wall. I have no idea how he got it on the wall. It was soo nasty!
