How to Make Your Daughter Bulimic in 4 Easy Steps

1. Get pregnant.

2. Feel crummy.

3. In your rush to make it to the toilet before you lose your lunch (or breakfast, or dinner), neglect to close the bathroom door.

4. As you bow to the porcelain throne, turn to see your two-year-old standing in the door frame, hunched over and making retching sounds.

Yeah. I'll never forget to close the door again.

Oh Jess, sorry you are feeling yucky. Don't feel bad though, the exact same thing happened to me. When I was pregnant with Annie, Christopher would graphically tell people how mommy threw up all the time. Hopefully it passes for you soon!

Oh my. Poor Jess. I agree-- it's so funny and sad at the same time. Hope you feel better soon.

Jenny said...

Oh no!! I hope you are feeling better! That is pretty funny - yet totally not.

Jess said...

Yeah, it's not our best bonding moment, but definitely funny in hindsight.

Oh Jess. I have my own "issues," but that's not one of them. Hang in there. Feeling yucky and taking care of a toddler are not a good combo. May it pass quickly.

Shelly said...

This cracks me up. Im surprised none of mine were scarred for life for all the same reasons.

I've been throwing up about 3 times a week and I got the flu a week ago.

Now when I so much as cough, Talmage will ask "Mommy, you sick now?"

The concern is kind of sweet, though.
