O_O I mean, why would they make up their own lie when there are so many more adorable lies readily available...

*drawls* I have always relied on the unsolicited affirmation of strangers...

awwwwww Little Owly, let me give you a hug T_T

What is it about that age? Bathtimes at three years old were such a struggle for me because my son would just play with his penis CONSTANTLY. He was pretty stable in there so I’d just ask him if he needed some alone time and sit outside the room waiting for him to be done. Eventually he grew out of it, or at least out…

HAH! I... think that might actually have worked with mine, dangit.

here we go

O_O

:\

To be fair, I did most of the damned things.

Play-dough, obviously. Yarn for the hair. It’s not rocket science.

Possibly days, but... more likely years, right?

ha ha ha this sounds like what I probably did to my little brother when he was born. Fuck a second child, amirite.

LOL YR FUCKING DAD. To be clear, in the anecdote above, I first glanced at my husband (standing right next to me) and said, “Honey”? And he walked out of the room. Must be a male instinct?

D... death?

Yeah, we’ve talked more about that one. I told him that maybe mommy will push the baby out “like taking a big poop”, but if the baby gets stuck like he did, then some doctors will help take the baby out. I... don’t know how well he’s processing any of it, to be honest, but at least he won’t have to witness any of it.

don’t give in to the penis beauty myth!

YESSS THIS IS THE FEEDBACK I WAS LOOKING FOR.

I’m not embarrassed, and I’m perfectly comfortable asking for recommendations; I mostly hadn’t expected this particular question so soon. But thanks.

I’m very pregnant, and my kid (3.5 years old) knows that there’s a baby in Mommy’s tummy that’s going to come out soon. But the other day he asked me, out of nowhere, with a comedically furrowed toddler brow, “Mommy, how did the baby get IN your tummy?”
