We were at the grocery store when my daughter had what I can only describe as a nuclear diaper incident. Poop went up her back, down her legs, all over her onesie. I had to change her in the bathroom with basically no supplies and just threw away her outfit. This is week 2 of parenthood. Does this happen to everyone or are we just unlucky? Also why does no one warn you about this???
Welcome to the club, man. That grocery store poop moment is a rite of passage. Pro tip: always have a change of clothes in the car now.
Oh man, we had one of those at Target last week. Now I keep an emergency change of everything in the diaper bag at all times.
Oh man, the first blowout is something you never forget. At the grocery store is peak bad timing though. Did you have a backup outfit in the diaper bag or was it a full scramble situation?
Welcome to parenthood my friend. This is just the beginning. Pro tip: keep extra clothes, diapers, and wipes in every bag you own.
Nuclear diaper incident is the perfect way to describe it. We had one at a family dinner and I'm pretty sure we traumatized my wife. You survive these moments and then laugh about them later.
The grocery store is the worst place for this to happen. At least you were in public so you could laugh about it instead of being home with a massive mess on the couch.

Happened to us at the mall when our daughter was that age. You'll laugh about it eventually, I promise.
