Poop = Play?
Let me start by placing a big fat warning on this post for anyone who has a weak stomach or can’t handle talking about bodily functions. Thankfully, most of us are parents and we have to deal with this on a daily basis anyway so, I shall continue.
Recently Isaak has formed an obsession with his poop. It’s all he talks about, it’s all he thinks about, and worst of all…it’s all he wants to play with. Ewww, I know.
Situation #1
I’m outside with Isaak sitting on the front porch and talking on the phone. Apparently my conversation was a little to interesting because I didn’t notice Isaak remove his diaper, poop in the pine needles, and then proceed to cover it with more pine needles. All of a sudden, I glance over at him and he’s nude with poop between his buns!! His diaper is nowhere in sight (I have yet to recover that piece of evidence) and when I asked him where his poo poo is, he points to the pile of pine needles. AHHHH!!!!
Situation #2
I put Isaak to bed one afternoon for naptime. He’s topless, but has shorts and a diaper on. After about 30 minutes, I go in to check on him, as always, to make sure he fell asleep. I find him passed out on the floor, completely nude, diaper strewn across the room with poop in it, poop between his buns, AND (this is the best part) poop covering both hands. He also left a nice picture, painted in poop of course, on my full length mirror. *gag*
I’ll spare you the poop pictures which I took from BOTH situations to use as blackmail when he’s a teenager and not listening to me.
What is WRONG with my child? I’ve never had a kid that’s been so fascinated with his poop. It’s totally grossing me out!!! I’ve had a few people tell me that this means he’s ready to be potty trained but he is not the slightest bit interested in pooping in the potty. It’s way more fun to use it as dough and paint, right?
Ewwwww!!! Your poop dilemma reminds me of when Serophina was about a year old and we were at a beach bbq and I decided to let her go without a diaper for a little while…. she pooped and our friend’s dog ate it!!! Isn’t that gross?! To this day I’m mortified about it. Poop- it’s a part of life!
that is HIDEOUS!!!! oh my gosh. but atleast there was no cleanup because the dog did it!
