[QUOTE="Pink Elephant, post: 736372, member: 21572"] Was just having a laugh at how desensitized I was to dealing with icky and yucky messes when my kids were little. Cleaning up puke, changing dirty diapers, wiping snotty noses. It's all in a days work for moms, but having been away from it for some time now has me somewhat recoiling over the thought of. Anything you remember doing back in the day/recently (mom related) that makes you cringe? For me it's how I used to hold my kids diaper pins pinched between my lips at change-time, yet I thought nothing of it at the time. Granted, for us older folk, it was a developed and learned habit that most older moms that used cloth diapers, did. Also, dunking and rinsing-out poopy diapers in the toilet, which I'd wring-out by-hand, no gloves, before depositing them in the diaper pail. My hands were a mess... always red, chapped, and sore. Moral of this topic, motherhood is [I]not[/I] for pansies. LOL! [/QUOTE]
