Gross Bathrooms


Comments (6) Share

Mama is looking pregnant now!

Here's one of the hidden secrets of parenthood: Gross bathrooms. Kind of like how no one told me I was going to bleed for a week after delivery. Funny, when the glossy magazines are going on about the "celebrity baby boom," blood and filth in public restrooms seems to be missing from the "I love being a mom" PR spin.

    Gah, hot button!! I have,now, turned my car into grand changing station. If I were a gutsier woman I would go to the front counter and pop her up there, because I have no other semi-sanitary place to change a diaper.

    Business owners - it's 2008 put a koala in, for godsake!!
    I'll bring the changing pad, you just get me a place to lay my child's butt.

    oh and you look wonderful. Starting to really round out… Hope you're feeling well.

    Forgot that part during my rant..

    thanks Leah! nice to be visibly pregnant, not just maybe dumpy.
    I advocated for my husband to have a changing table in his restaurant after many years of them not having one. I'm the Norma Rae of changing tables.

    I once had to change my daughter's diaper on the floor of an airport bathroom because the only diaper changing station was in a special family bathroom which someone had locked themselves in. I was also pregnant and the whole situation made me dry heave.

    I have actually perfected the changing my daughter while sitting on the toilet with my left leg ankle crossed over my right leg knee, making a triangular "table" of sorts to place her — it's getting awkward now that she's almost 3 though!!!

    Sorry, that was supposed to be "perfected the art of changing my daughter"
