What do I do with him now that he's trying to climb out of the bouncy seat? Where can I strap him down for a few minutes so I can pee?:eek:

I think you have to start wearing Depends.

I don't know, try and distract him for a few minutes with something shiny.

Just don't bring him into the bathroom with you, it could give him some wierd fetish or something. :D

Stick him in a high chair, scatter tray with Cheerios,
let him feed himself while you go take care of business.

He's not doing finger-foods yet. He's had a little trouble gaining weight, so the doc doesn't want him on ff or sippy cups yet.

Then take him with you. He's too young to remember anything at this point anyway.

That's not the issue. What to put him in, is. Should I hold him while I pee? He's too mobile to leave on the floor.

Outside of a high chair, playpen, or baby walker, I can't think of anything.

Traz is right. Take him with you, or do the high chair thing. How about putting him in his crib and taking the mobile monitor with you?

That's right! I forgot about the playpen! I took it to my mom's 3 months ago. It completely escaped my mind. Thanks!

If your bathroom isn't baby-proofed, now's the time to start. Get cabinet locks and shower caddies to get everything out of baby Kah's way. Then you can always bring him into the bathroom, set him on a blankie with a toy, and let him entertain himself while you do what needs to be done.

Of course, once he's really mobile, then you can just give up any idea of peeing in peace. One time when my son was about 14 months, I was doing my thing and he walked into the bathroom, smiled at momma, walked over to me, and promptly drooled right into my panties. I had fun hopping upstairs to get fresh ones. :p

Duct tape him to the floor.

I know...that's just terrible

After my older one started to crawl, I managed to do it by leaving her on a blanket on the living-room floor and quickly going to the toilet; I left the door ajar when I was alone with her, and I had just enough time to pee before she peeped in, smiling happily as to say "Found you!" She took it as some kind of hide-and-seek.

Gerbil-boy, that's not terrible. Stapling him to the floor would be terrible.

Personally, Kah, I have found that if you are trying to sneak off to the bathroom a good stiff belt of Scotch for the kid will usualyl give you enough time to get away...

The exersaucer seriously saved me for a while there. Now he climbs out of it, so it has been put away. I had him trapped between a baby gate and some couches, but he climbed up and over the couches this morning. :eek: I had to wrap blankets around his crib because he was eating the wood. Day care is looking better and better.

ROFLMAO!

(just trying to image his incisors...)

I had a dog that literally ate (not just chewed) the entire leg off of a wooden chair in the afternoon I left him unattended.

One morning I awoke to find my then infant son sitting upright and smiling in the middle of his room on the floor. Somehow he had gotten out of his crib (a high one!) and landed on the floor without a single cry or sound. Freaked me out! That's when I switched to a toddler bed.

A neighbor here kinda creeped my out with her solution - her son was three and a half at the time and she still had him in a crib! To keep him from crawling out - she would tie down a net on all sides of the crib. She shared this with me when I tried selling her my son's out-grown toddler bed.

:eek:

He only has 2 teeth on the bottom and 4 on the top. It's amazing the amount of damage he has done to everything with them. I'm just about to convert his crib to a toddler bed. Every time I think he is safely contained, he proves me wrong.

Yeah, but what you guys don't know is that he likes to shove multiple cheerios in his mouth at once... I don't think choking is an option while Jess is in the bano.:ohwell:

I shoved Coacoa Puffs up my nose. And cheese, too!

Somehow, that's not suprising, Jakey.


My nephew once put an unpopped popcorn kernel up his nose and didn't tell anyone about it. It stayed up there for over a week. Know what happens to one of those in an enclose damp space? It expands. And it isn't easy to remove in that state either.

Doesn't sound like it would be any easier in Oregon, either.

I thought Milk-bones were pretty tasty. Or maybe that was just the trend in the 70s, feed your kid dog biscuits.

Reading about the things you all ate (i.e milk bones) or shoved up your whatever (i.e. cocopuffs) really, really explains a whole hell of a lot about you...



...at least now I won't die wondering.

Thats why I have dogs instead of kids, you can crate a dog ;). I have no desire what-so-ever to have kids because I know that I'm not cut out to be a perent, plus the world has enough people in it without me adding to it.
