    What IS it about Mondays? Would you term?

    I mean seriously? I have a 16m DCB who is just crazy wild! I understand this is normal and I have two other DCKs that are around the same age and just as crazy and wild. However lately this kid has gotten crazier and crazier! And today....he reached up into his shorts and pulled POO out of his diaper and smeared it all over the toys he was playing with while waiting for his turn to get a diaper change! OMG! It's the first time he has done it but I am SO not willing to deal with that! Would you term over this? Should I wait and see if it was a one time thing? He has also been grabbing himself while I'm changing him (also totally normal) so I know much of it is curiosity but I really don't want to have to re-sanitize kids and toys over and over and over.

    No, I wouldn't term, but I would require he wear "onesies" for a while. I had a LO who was a stripper. Found her in her pnp after nap naked...and her bed completely soaked. I just told mom the same thing. It did help, although she could get even some of those off by squeezing her arms and shoulders through the neck.

      First of all, I'm sorry for your tough day! We've all had days like that, and it can be so overwhelming when you have little people who all need you at the same time and poo everywhere to clean. Trust me, I know how you're feeling. Don't throw in the towel for one bad day. Ask mom to send pants and onesies, just until he's through the poo exploration phase.

        Oh the poo stage! I have one who loved to smear it on his hands and then wipe it wherever. Onesies! Sorry for the tough day

          nannyde has a trick she uses. She puts the child in those one piece footie pajamas backwards. They cant unzip them because the zipper is on the back.

            Yup, onesies. And one-piece outfits if needed.

            I used to safety pin my own kids' sleeper zippers up. I wouldn't do it with a dck in case they opened it and stabbed themselves, but it worked like a charm on my own kids.
