So my 3 week old decided to go full volcanic at 3am and it was EVERYWHERE. Up the back, down the legs, on my shirt. I stood there for like a full minute just staring at the destruction before my brain kicked in. Changed the kid, changed myself, changed the sheets, threw up a little in my mouth. Anyone else get hit with the code browns or is my son just special?
Diaper blowouts are basically a baptism into fatherhood. You're officially initiated now. The good news is once you've lived through the volcanic 3am one, nothing else phases you.
Oh man, the 3am blowouts are the absolute worst. And it's always when you're already exhausted and everything inside you is questioning every life choice. But weirdly those terrible moments become the stories you laugh about later.
Three weeks in and the volcanic diaper situation. Yeah, that's a rite of passage. I got sprayed up to my shoulder once at 2am. You learn real quick that onesies are basically garbage at that point.

That's rough. Pro tip for next time: undress the baby completely before attempting cleanup. I learned that the hard way. And keep a change of sheets nearby because it's always worse than you think.
