Funny poo stories

I caught up with my NCT group today, and one of them shared a really funny poo story, which then reminded me of one of my own, and another which may be apocryphal. So I hereby share the stories with you - if you don't want to read about baby poo, look away now....

Story #1
My friend's baby had a nasty tummy bug, and each poo had been vile and very explodey for several days. However, the baby recovered and there came a day when she had not pooed all day, so by the afternoon my friend decided to risk a trip to Waitrose. While she was wandering the aisles she smelt an ominous smell, looked down, and spotted the poo. Which had leaked onto the floor. And soaked up the baby's vest almost to chest level. She whisked the offensive child off to the toilets, changed her from head to toe, made her vaguely respectable, and returned shame-faced to her abandoned trolley. And the poo had magically been wiped away - that's what you get for shopping in Waitrose!

Story #2
When Isabel was walking but still in nappies and edging towards potty training, we went to visit some friends with a rather nice garden. Several other children of a similar age were there, so we de-nappied them and put a potty down. Rather hopefully as it turned out. But I only discovered this when my host for the afternoon pointed out Isabel crouching over a corner of the patio rather than the neighbouring potty. Wet wipes clean poo off a patio leaving little trace, FYI!

Story #3
Another one from the age of toddler-hood - a friend of a friend was in someone's garden with her daughter, who, after being quiet for a few minutes, approached with cupped hands. You guessed it - those hands contained a delightfully fragrant offering.

Kids eh, gotta love 'em!
