Reply #24: Parenthood demands a strong stomach.

[davsand]

I'm telling you, a kid will leave you absolutely immune to the gruesome.

Material Girl was 3 or 4 days old and I looked down while I had her on the changing table. I was wearing a cotton robe that snapped up the front(called a "duster" by imaginative ad agencies) picked out by my mother, light blue slip on tennies with a splash of baby poo on them, and my hair was dirty because I hadn't had a shower since I'd left the hospital because my C section made it impossible to lift my legs high enough to step into the tub.

It was NOT exactly the image of beautific motherhood, nor was it even remotely close to attractive...

Oh yes, a gross picture is NOTHING compared to the sights and smells of parenthood.
