And what I found with my kids was, once they started having blowouts more than once, it was time to up the diaper size--then no more blowouts! Also, there is no substitute for a good quality diaper! My sister swears by a budget brand that I canNOT get my kids to use without blowout central! Good luck, and remember, Ewa is out of this stage, so this too shall pass!Andi Kate, Children's Authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06276051519521844931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4869329841369921947.post-85959821810461548142010-04-20T15:04:52.841+02:002010-04-20T15:04:52.841+02:00One trick that my sister taught me is to fold the ...One trick that my sister taught me is to fold the flap of the onsie in, on top of the mess, so that it doesn't get all over his hair as you are taking it off. That only makes it a little bit easier to deal with, and only if it went out the back not up the front. I have so many moments like that where I just want to cry and make the mess go away.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15815636729823126855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4869329841369921947.post-63074403828243829052010-04-20T00:53:19.546+02:002010-04-20T00:53:19.546+02:00He's so danged adorable, I would sign up to ha...He's so danged adorable, I would sign up to handle one of his blowouts just to see his darling face!Lesleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08062439478458703873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4869329841369921947.post-54520808717570539172010-04-16T20:00:37.312+02:002010-04-16T20:00:37.312+02:00Ah, blowouts... the bane of every mother's exi...Ah, blowouts... the bane of every mother's existence. I don't have a magical cure except that it happens to the best of us. Sometimes in Sacrament meeting when your daughter is wearing a white dress and you didn't bring any backup clothes. Not that I would know, of course. My children are utterly perfect in every way. :)<br /><br />Did you make the vest he is wearing?

I remember one gal who had to bring an extra outfit every single Sunday--and used it--for one of her babies. However, my oldest ralphed a lot. He still does. It wouldn't be so annoying if he were as adorable as your little guy.

Don't worry if it smears, spreads, grows in the undressing process. Diaper to trash. Everything else wrapped up in towel to the washing machine for a pre-wash, and child and mother's arms to the bathtub. Then if you manage to get out of it with only the rescue of a few baby wipes, it's a pleasant surprise. Good luck!Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11486223394459963669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4869329841369921947.post-70414358229630782982010-04-15T15:01:52.582+02:002010-04-15T15:01:52.582+02:00Oh my, he is so adorable.

I found the perfect way to deal with that problem--pass him over to your husband and offer to get the baby dressed while your husband is scrubbing the clothes (and the sink!) Of course this only works during the small amount of you time that your husband is home!<br /><br />Love the blog makeover!!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08896888700175603711noreply@blogger.com
