Projectile pee and explosive poo

Although breastfeeding has tons of benefits for the baby, it also has numerous drawbacks. One of which is that the baby poops more often. And it’s not the normal poop, it would come out with a lot of air making this loud sound and forceful exit. My sister Amy described it as “explosive”. Butch has been a victim of Nigel’s explosive poo on numerous occasions. He was burping him one time when the poo spilled out of the diaper and onto his shirt. Even funnier, In the middle of a diaper change Nigel suddenly did his thing. Because of the force, the poo landed everywhere but the diaper. There was some on the crib, the nearby study table and chair and of course all over daddy! I was laughing my head off when Butch told me the story. Fortunately, I’ve not encountered the explosive poo but I have been a victim of Nigel’s projectile pee too many times. All moms with baby boys have probably experienced this- urine shooting up all of a sudden during a diaper change. What’s worse is that he sometimes does it in the middle of a bath or when I am all done and just about to lift him off the tub. The pee would mix on the water he’s been soaking on. I would start all over again keeping my fingers crossed that he won’t pee again. That happened during the first weeks. Now I am a bit wiser. To prevent this, I never give Nigel baths or change his diaper immediately after a feeding. I wait about thirty minutes or so. It has worked so far. No more projectile pee for me!
