A blowout that went up out of the diaper, through her clothes, through my shirt and even into my nursing tank, as well as a blanket and a spit rag. I changed her (into her brother's huge size 5 diaper which was the last one I had) and washed up but I couldn't exactly strip down so I sat there for more than another hour with poop on me. Point being, if anyone's getting poop poisoning, it's us!! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-507754 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 12:22:42 +0000 KT326 507754@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When DS was 5 months old he had a blowout right as we needed to leave the house to go to daycare/work. I quickly cleaned him up and changed his clothes. When I got to work I realized I had gotten poop on my jeans. =/ At least it was breast milk poop so it didn't smell too bad and I was able to get it out with some water. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-507749 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 12:21:12 +0000 Jenn23 507749@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: Thanks!! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-507747 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 12:21:04 +0000 sorrycharlie 507747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I also love the babyganics!

I probably use more wipes than necessary on him, but I'm not touching that s! haha<br /> And Babyganics foam sanitizer is awesome, btw </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-507697 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 12:03:44 +0000 mrs. wagon 507697@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No avoiding coxsackie when LOs get old enough to put their hands down their diapers!!! ;D</p> <p>I only wash my hands after a bad poop blowout and otherwise use Purell or wipes (also don't feel comfortable leaving LO to wash my hands) and Wagon Jr. never contracted HFM, even when it went around his daycare. Or if he had it, it was so quick and mild that I never noticed it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-507473 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 10:57:57 +0000 winniebee 507473@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Jenn23: I missed that you had your baby boy - I haven't seen you much since the Weddingbee days - congratulations!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-507428 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 10:41:51 +0000 Jenn23 507428@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree with those who said you need to scrub with soap and water. Wipes won't cut it. I always scrub after changing Jay's diapers. It's dangerous and gross, not too, in my opinion! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-507423 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 10:39:27 +0000 winniebee 507423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With poopy diapers, I always use a wipe to wash off my hands before I put the new diaper on. Once new diaper on, I go to the bathroom and wash my hands (scrub) - LO is mobile and flips over like crazy so sometimes I put him on the floor rather than strap him to the table. Once I'm clean, i dress him. As others have mentioned, I'm really paranoid about poop contamination especially because my son is always putting everything in his mouth (including MY hands!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-507410 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 10:32:12 +0000 Mrs. Pen 507410@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsBrewer: agreed.</p> <p>I really believe that something that can spread such harmful disease is no laughing matter. Making sure you scrub your hands clean after dealing with feces is common sense to me! I would be mortified to find out I visited someone's house who doesn't scrub their hands after changing a diaper - and quite honestly that would deter me from visiting again and perhaps even confronting them about it.</p> <p>Princessbaby I'd hate to see Harper get sick from something so easily preventable. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-507330 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 09:59:47 +0000 MrsBrewer 507330@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Please be careful, my best friend and her little one got very very sick from fecal contamination! The little one had a temp of 105, and my friend started shaking uncontrollably at one point, and she had a fever of 103! She had to go to the ER for fluids actually. She was dangerously sick for 2 weeks. Actually because of this illness her breastmilk supply completely tanked because she wasn't eating, and she had to wean early.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-507291 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 09:36:51 +0000 Andrea 507291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, definitely wash your hands after changing poop or else you can spread diseases around! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-507253 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 09:17:37 +0000 pastemoo 507253@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek: OMG Please share lyrics! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-507243 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 09:12:30 +0000 Arden 507243@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: I suggest stocking your bathroom with some quality lotion to use after each hand-washing. Wipes aren't as effective, I'm afraid. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-507239 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 09:11:17 +0000 PrincessBaby 507239@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek: That's hilarious!</p> <p>Just to clarify- I use the wipes to scrub my hands bc I don't want to pick her up with hands that haven't been tended to in order to walk to the bathroom sink to wash, and I don't want to leave her wiggle worm self on the changing table alone while I go to the bathroom sink...I also prefer wipes bc they are not as drying to my skin, which I tend to have problems with! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-507230 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 09:05:55 +0000 littlek 507230@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rachiecakes: Yes, it is! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-507228 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 09:04:50 +0000 rachiecakes 507228@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek: almost spat out my coffee! if your rendition of 'Big Pimpin' has to do with poopin', I think we're singing the same song, hahahaha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-507225 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 09:03:03 +0000 littlek 507225@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, I always wash my hands really well after I change LOs diaper. I even sing to LO about cleaning my hands as I wash them, it's to the tune of "Big Pimpin'" but I change the words. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-507006 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 23:18:55 +0000 autumnlove 507006@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The title makes me laugh! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-507004 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 23:17:59 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 507004@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got poop on my face once.

But I did drop a giant blob of LO poop on the bathroom floor as I was emptying her diaper this morning.. It's a good thing I was planning to scrub that bathroom today anyway. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-506978 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 23:01:10 +0000 MsMini 506978@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>EWWWW! </p> <p>Washing your hands after EVERY (pee and poop) diaper change with soap and water is just basic personal hygiene! It really only takes a couple minutes, and it could safe you and your baby from getting seriously ill. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-506967 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 22:48:31 +0000 rachiecakes 506967@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>hahahaha </p> <p>the other night I was bathing DS, got him out and in a big fluffy towel aaaaaand he peed straight through the towel and all over me! nice </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-506961 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 22:41:44 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 506961@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know you were worried about unvaccinated family members coming near H.....</p> <p>I fear that not washing after poopy diaper changes is probably more detrimental to everyone's health than not getting a flu shot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ever-look-down-and-find-poop-crumbs-on-your-fingers#post-506933 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 22:19:55 +0000 regberadaisy 506933@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Coxsackievirus is no laughing matter. </p> <p>I've heard of it at daycare and wonder how it's even possible this disease gets passed bc it's passed by contact with fecal matter, saliva, mucus, etc.<br /> <a href="http://www.cdc.gov/hand-foot-mouth/about/index.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.cdc.gov/hand-foot-mouth/about/index.html</a></p> <p>Kids at daycare have gotten this and they've gone to bleaching everything nightly until it passes.
