But I don't care.
Had a pretty rubbish 2024 and the first half of 2025 was utter tosh for a million reasons (mostly my own doing).
But I sit in my comfy chair with my two day old baby, tired out of mind, forgetting all the bs as that's been and gone over the years and nothing else matters from before. Just got to be the best person and parent I can be.
Although, why don't people give you a heads up about volume of poop? Like it's a big secret and everyone is in on the joke.
That's it, just wanted to make a post about poop. Read a few books, not mentioned in great depth.

In that respect babies are like those little yapppy dogs. The amount of poo they produce is in inverse proportion to their size.
Congratulations to you and yours on the new arrival.
Think you’re tired now?
Enjoy every minute mate. |  |

Huge congratulations. I'm not a parent, only a dog owner, so I have a tiny fraction of understanding of the love, awe and overwhelm you will have happening all at once. I sincerely wish you an amazing 2026, and I'm sure your tiny bundle of joy will give you just that.
Despite not being a parent myself, as an auntie, I have dealt with several poonami incidents, and all I can say is 'Bon courage'. 😁 |  |

Congrats mate, I sat in your position this time last year and it's a rollercoaster ride! Best of luck with the lack of sleep! I hope yours doesn't last as long as mine. Haha
Yes poop is real, you think it's bad now, wait until they are on solids. Hahaha |  | | |

I remember an early trip out when my eldest did three poops in 30 minutes that shot up his back and out of the babygrow around his neck, rendering us without a change of clothes for the rest of the day.
Enjoy! |  | | |

Reminds me of my Labrador as a puppy, whose scavenging once resulted in projectile diarrhoea (imagine a garden hose at max pressure). At least it was mostly water and activated charcoal, but cleaning up the walls, floor & furniture at 3am wasn’t something I’d want to do again. |  |

The thing that freaked me out most was the fact that the first poop, having been weeks in the making, was dark green.
Congratulations! |  | | |

If you think the poo is a big secret wait until teething or when they regress in terms of sleeping.
Spoiler alert - it can be rather exhausting.
Congratulations on your new born, hope mum is doing well as well. |  | | |

Huge congratulations, an incredible bubble in those first days and weeks and there’s nothing quite like it. Enjoy the joys of parenthood. |  | | |

The best is when they fill the new nappy the second you put it on. |  | | |

One highlight for me was when my now ex wife was changing my youngest's nappy whilst simultaneously calling me a useless tw@t over some trivial matter that had given her the hump. My daughter did an impeccably timed sneeze/fart combo giving the wife a full dirty facial.
My laughter and general joy at the situation only seemed to make her angrier. |  | | |

My little bundle of joy was 19 in November.
Although the poo situation sorts itself in time (btw lots of poo is much better than none). Ours had a really bad reflux issue for the first few months and would projectile vomit after every feed. We ended up feeding round the clock every 2 hours and then noting how much she drank and the estimate how much she vomited. I have never been a great sleeper but nothing compares to the sleep deprivation a child can bring. No wonder they use it for torture. All went well in the end.
BTW , I am told the first 35 years are the worst, then it gets a bit easier.
Congratulations buddy. There’s nothing lovelier than a baby/tot in your life. [Post edited 3 Jan 22:45]
