Nap Time 'Poopers'

[mamac]

I always wake to change a poopy diaper. I've even changed wet diapers in the middle of the night before I went to sleep. They've never woken up. During the 6 months before my ds was potty trained I would put him in for his nap. Sometimes he'd be nearly asleep when I brought him in and sometimes he was fully awake. He always pooped within 10 minutes of being in there. I tried pushing nap time back a little but it's like his body was used to the routine of lying down and then pooping. I always went in and changed him even if a miracle happened and he actually fell asleep during nap, in which case he'd be up and ready to go.

Not changing wasn't really an option anyway. My kids are pretty stinky.

Yes,do get over it. You're attitude and bullying ways make me embarrassed to be a provider! You my dear are a bully, with an attitude problem.Every one of your responses to people's post are full of judgement and just an overall "I'm better then everyone else"
Change your crappy kids! You are the BEST provider out there!

It's not being a bully. There's no kind gentle way to say you are being negligent. It would be one thing if this was a discussion of when to change but it's now a defense of something that is JUST PLAIN WRONG. We are trying to get you too see it.

I've been on daycare boards for 15 years and this is about the most ridiculous discussion I have seen. We have completely lost our ability to make basic common sense decisions.

My kids aren't pooping awake- the fact that you believe you know my dck better than I do is insane!
Ill just personally agree to disagree... Who knew poop could be so angering! Lol

It's getting stinky in here because between Crystal and Nannyde they are full of crap!

How would YOU like to lay in poop for two hours?

Rediculous. This is BASIC common sense and BASIC minimum standard care. I promise you there isn't a public health or department of children and family service that would ever condone a child being in a poopy diaper for any time for any reason. As soon as they poop it needs to be changed. Right then. Unless you are in a fire or some emergency where the lives are at risk... the kids need to be changed asap.

No kidding.

I have NEVER had kid crap themselves asleep. I cannot even imagine it happening.

How are we full of crap? Is what we said not true? Is what we said a lie? Are we lying when we say we wouldn't allow a child to sit in a ****ty diaper? :confused: Please, do share, how are we full of crap? We are just being honest, and starightforward....which clearly some people cannot tolerate.

Well- if you cannot imagine it ... It MUST NEVER HAPPEN!!! ::
I just can't even take this serious anymore!

I would never allow a kid to have poop on their butt when I know I can change them. The only time a kid is sitting in poop at my house is when we are changing someone else's rear end and we literally can't do them both at the same time.

I don't care if I wake the dead doing it. I don't care if the parents are upset if their kid wakes up early and is tired.

To me this is another space issue I see so much. When providers make decisions to with hold BASIC care... not advanced or special care... but BASIC care it almost always comes down to space. If you don't have space to seperate kids at nap who are so easily awakened that they would stay awake crying thru the rest of nap and their crying would affect your break...then you just don't have enough space to have the kids in the first place.

Normally I agree with you in most every situation. We rent an entire home for our daycare that has three large rooms, one small room and a bathroom. We have more than enough space.

However, I would still maintain that their crying would wake up the other children, as they are startled, being woken and changed. We do white notice, etc. but the kids do wake up of another child is upset and screaming. Obviously once they are out of the room where they are sleeping, they would be far enough to not wake the other children. But the process of waking and changing their diaper would wake the other kids.

I suppose it could happen, but it isn't likely. It is far more likely that the child pooped before falling asleep, or woke up briefly and pooped, then fell back to sleep. An observant provider would see that. What isn't "serious" about that?

Ya know, you are the one who said "flame away" when you posted above, so don't get upset when you get "flamed".

If I have a naptime pooper I just bring them out of the room to change and then put them back to bed. I must have well trained nappers because it's never been a problem.

For my babies, they sleep in their own rooms, so that's never an issue as far as waking anyone else.

Most of my kids are pretty regular, so it's easy to prevent anyway as long as they stay "on schedule" so to speak .
