First time changing a blowout diaper

Holy crap. Literally. This thing exploded up his back and somehow into his hair. I didn't even know that was possible. I just stood there for a minute staring at my daughter before calling my wife for backup. How do you guys handle these without losing your mind? Do they get easier or am I always gonna feel like I have no idea what I'm doing?

Oh man welcome to the club. That happened to us last week and I'm still finding mysterious stains on things. The hair situation is real. Got a onesie, his shirt, AND the crib bumper. Pro tip: keep extra clothes within arm's reach.

Haha yeah those are rough. Just wait until it happens in the car or at grandma's house. The exploding up the back trick is their signature move apparently.

First blowout is a rite of passage. Don't worry, after your 4th or 5th one you'll have a system. Keep a change of clothes and some wipes literally everywhere. Trust me.

This is one of those moments where you just stand there wondering how a 3 month old produced that much output. The first time it gets in their hair you realize you're now in the major leagues of parenting.
