6 Super Gross Stuff All Moms Do

Babble.com made a hilarious list of all the super gross things all moms do!  This moms funny take on all the less than glamorous aspects of mothering isn't just funny because of the her light sarcastic tone, it's funny because it's all true.

I'm blushing as I write this, but I've done all these things:

1. Wiped a dirty bottom.

Changing a baby’s diaper is sweet. It’s a moment of bonding. Wiping a toddler’s butt while she hovers over a full toilet is whatever word means the opposite of bonding. Repulsion? It is THAT.

2. Scooped small, brown things out of the tub.

NOT BATH TOYS.

No lie, that second one almost made me throw up. Thankfully, it totally grossed my son out too so it never happened again. Be thankful for small miracles right?

3. Excavated a nose, finger-style.

If it’s a foreign object, doing it myself is preferable than a visit to a pediatrician. If it’s a non-foreign object, well … sometimes there just aren’t tissues around.

After watching my mom fish peas out of my sister's nose for the second time and swearing she would never serve them again… you would think I would have learned that peas and toddlers don't mix.

4. Wore a peed-upon article of clothing out of the house.

Because it’s dry now, and who has the time for a wardrobe change?

5. Did the above but with bedsheets,not clothes.

We have to get sleep any way we can.

I'm not the only one. Tell the truth.

6. Licked my finger and used it to wipe my kid’s face.

Mom-spit cures all facial ills.

I saw my mom do that last one so many times that it didn't seem all that gross to me by the time I had my own kiddos. Who needs wet wipes when you have magic mom spit?

Okay, maybe it is a little gross. You've done it too! Right?  Be sure to check out the rest of the list for a good laugh over on Babble.com
