Nobody warns you about this. We're talking poop up the back, on the onesie, on the swaddle, on me. My daughter looked so peaceful sleeping through the whole thing. I somehow got it everywhere except actually in the diaper. My wife walked in and just laughed at me for a solid minute. Pretty sure I used half a pack of wipes. How is this normal and why does nobody talk about it more?
Oh man, you're in it now. Wait til it gets in the hair. That's when you truly understand the phrase 'baptism by fire.' Congrats on your initiation into fatherhood.
Dude, I'm right there with you. My daughter did the exact same thing yesterday and I was just standing there covered in... well, you know. The peaceful sleeping part is both beautiful and infuriating at the same time.
Oh man, that's just the beginning! Wait until you're at a soccer game and it happens in the stands. But honestly those newborn moments, even the messy ones, go by so fast. You're doing great.
Ha, welcome to the club brother. Those blowouts are no joke, especially when they're sleeping like nothing happened. Pro tip: keep extra clothes in the diaper bag, car, and everywhere else. You'll thank me later.
The blowout phase is real and it's brutal. Pro tip: keep a change of clothes for YOU nearby too. We learned that the hard way about 47 times.
Welcome to fatherhood my friend. Nobody tells you about the ones that go up to the neck. I've gone through entire outfits in one sitting. Keep extra clothes in every room of the house. Trust me on this.
Those newborn diapers are basically tissue paper. Size up as soon as you can because the bigger sizes actually contain things better. Sounds weird but I'm telling you it works.
This is the stuff they should show in prenatal classes instead of just breathing exercises. Welcome to the club brother.

The poop up the back is real. We're talking like it defies gravity. My advice: use those diaper changing pads with the raised sides, keep wipes warming, and honestly just laugh about it. It happens to all of us.
