To provide actual context, he's definitely talking about food because I spend far too much of my life peeling apples. His new thing now is that he won't eat the "skin" on the waffles which means I now have to waste an extraordinary amount of waffle cutting off the edges to make the circle a square, because he'll only eat the square shaped waffle pieces. It's an entire post of itself but we left kiddo with Grandma and Grandpa for 3 days while we went on a little vacation for our 5 year anniversary. One day they told us he ate 16 mini waffles and I knew in my heart that what they really meant was that he ate 4 waffles and the rest went in the garbage as part of the waffle skin purge. They did such a good awful job keeping his routine that, in a perfect metaphor, they lost the book that we wrote his routine in. He got so bad that his SEIT had to cancel other appointments because he was far too hosed up to be left on his own in class. This is the kid who's normally so well behaved that she recommended against her own services as unnecessary at our last check in.

My daughter for a long while disliked the little fuzzy whiteness of the rind that's still on a mandarin orange when it's peeled/wouldn't eat the outside of apples either. We got her past it via showing her how we eat the little clementine pieces whole, showing how they come in a can, and simply making some apple slices with a bit of pb nearby to dip it into. YMMV but it got her over being picky about texture. Last month my kiddo successfully converted her friends to eating seaweed snacks after sharing em last time they came over for a playdate. Ended up talking to the parents about how we make veggie sushi at home using seaweed ie nori, and would be happy to show them how to make em. They're up for it as a cooking lesson sort of thing for the kids. Daughter makes her own rolls anyway (we cut em). I'm actually looking forward to letting my daughter teach/show her friends how to make sushi rolls and share her love of em.

My kid won’t eat the skin of apples either. I’ve found that a way to get her to eat bananas is to eat one myself. She wants a banana for “mama too.” We went to the zoo today with my daughter and my mom. She got to see camels and seals and lemurs and farm animals. There were no birds due to avian flu and they even drained the duck pond. I think her favourite was the sleeping piggies that she got to pet through the fence. She kept saying, “so cuuuute!” when she looked at them. Fun, hot, busy day. I can’t remember a Mother’s Day where all the trees were already in bloom. We were in the backyard and I was giving her a hug and said, “I love you!” I got an, “I love you too, mummy!” back! I even got her to say “Happy Mother’s Day!” My husband got me a sun hat and a lovely card when I really wasn’t expecting anything! I usually have to ask him in advance if I want gifts, so it was a nice surprise! Spent a lot of time thinking about old friends. It would be nice to reconnect with some of them and introduce them to my Covid baby.

I got the day care cold for the first time. My 13 week old coughing and sneezing in my face probably contributed.

my son is 2.5 weeks old at this point. i think he's entered a growth spurt because he's just eating like crazy... when he's awake, anyway. unfortunately the transition between "absolutely limp sleeping child" and "screaming hungry hellbeast rooting at his own hands, my t-shirt, my finger, a puff of air brushing his cheek" is pretty abrupt. Oh, and after experiencing "seedy yellow poops", I've told my wife she probably shouldn't make paneer bhurji for a while (google image search if you want context)

Even when they're older, beets, blueberries, strawberries and spinach are fun. I remember us panicking from beet poops, thinking our kid had some sort of bloody stool situation before we remembered. Depending on the kid, the poop may not smell too bad where it turns you off from other foods. You could make some saag paneer so it doesn't match current colors?

My kid loves popping an entire vine of cherry tomatoes into her mouth at one sitting and you'd better believe we see those shriveled up shreds of tomato skin a few hours later.

My two year old had green blue poop today cause she ate a bee cookie with black icing yesterday. It's truly a rainbow of poop Watched Totoro cause she's under the weather today. When it ended, she screamed "Oh no, the guys!!" Oh and when she saw the small one she was like "bunny!". When she saw the big one she went "...bun..ny?"

Sure, it spreads around more and he might get a couple flecks on his beanbag but it beats hell out of trying to swab up a big blob of road tar.

All made worse by the difficult black tarry poop that she had never had to deal with before.

Just keep wiping just keep wiping Dog poop bags are great for poop diapers. Always keep a stock at the changing table.

Speaking of poopy diapers, my son reached into his diaper genie, pulled out a lovely diaper, and threw it down the stairs! Of course he thought it was the funniest thing ever.

At least the meconium poop doesn’t smell, it’s just like trying to clean wet asphalt off of the most fragile thing you’ve ever met in your life. Kiddo made Mother’s Day special by having a blowout in his pajamas and kicking everywhere and spreading poop around the room and house.

it really cannot be understated how much poo poo you will have to touch. like youcant convey this to someone who is not a parent. the other day my kid "missed" the toilet and her poop was all over the bathroom. i picked up a piece and i accidentally dropped it (rookie move right?) and the kid basically fell over laughing. her day will come...

My son is a private pooper. He will hold it in until he is unattended and unsupervised. That is when he practices the dark art.

I made a stupid device that tweeted out a poop emoji every time the lid to the diaper genie was opened. In the 15 months it was active it tweeted 1,654 times, or roughly 3.6 times a day. It would only tweet once upon activation so there is no double counting, and did not count any changes away from home so its still an undercount. I do not miss changing diapers.

My youngest, who just started potty training, enjoys having us escort him upstairs to use the house’s only toilet, and has refused to use our little potty downstairs. My eldest enjoys the convenience of taking a crap in the living room. Kids are a land of contrasts.

Good-Natured Filth posted:Day 2 of weaning our almost 5yo son off of sucking his thumb. He's doing surprisingly well with it. Week two of weaning, and it's mostly been great. We still put tape on his thumb at night because he has a strong night-sucking habit, but it's off during the day at this point with minimal thumb-sucking attempts. I've caught him start to suck his thumb, double-take, and pull it out; so he's definitely trying his best. This morning he told me that he took the tape off in the middle of the night because he wanted to suck his thumb, and I told him it was awesome to be honest and understood that it gets hard sometimes. We're very proud of him, and he's definitely earned his prize at the doctor's office at his 5 year checkup this week.

Nobody’s in control unless the toddler can be Jedi mind tricked into doing something without explicitly granting you control. The one time I lost my cool and said “no, because I’m the boss” she just smirked at me and said “well, I’m the little boss and I say yes!” Help me

Why won’t this loving kid sleep. They slept through the night for the greater part of 2 years since we sleep trained at 6 months and now we’re hosed. Even paid a sleep consultant to help out and my wife isn’t even following half the poo poo she says and it’s not even working anyway. How are we going to have a second kid if we never get to sleep and can’t even gently caress anymore because we’re so tired or someone is sleeping on the floor. Thank you for letting me rant at this ungodly hour.
