Puke patrol

Why must kids walk around the house as they puke. Its 3a.m. and 4 puke spots later Im back in bed. Let the Christmas goodie over eating begin.

Been there man, hope the kiddies get well for Santa

Or why do they stop just feet from the bathroom or outside door and let it rip over and over again. I blame their mom or traits like that.

I want to know why when they puke in bed they don’t turn their head or do it over the side of the bed and they puke all over their self instead.

You have it easy “Spots” are easy to clean Vs. the infamous PROJECTILE PUKE that one of my daughters was known for. Splatter coat across 10′ covering the floor, walls, ceiling and everything in between spent hours cleaning and and still finding a chuck a day or two later
Hope the little one begins to feel better

Or when they come in the bedroom to wake you up to let you know they are gonna puke and a half a second later they puke on the side of your bed.. Hope their feeling better soon!

Another classic is into thier carseat buckles, cloth, etc.

First spot was outside his bedroom door on the way to the bathroom in the basement. Second was at the foot of the steps. Third was at the top of the steps and fourth was outside my bedroom/bathroom doors. My middle son had had issues for about a year where he would throw up every night. We got to the point where we would wake up to it hitting the floor and we slept a level apart. Even with a bucket in his bed it never once made it there. Multiple experts and thousands later they said he would grow out of it.

HAHA! That’s the truth. The Car seat cover can get gross. I hate having to take it apart and wash the cover.

Wife cant even make it…no wonder the kids cant. I agree with the car seats, no way could you pack it in there that bad if you tried.

This will bite me in the a$$, but our 2-year old has never thrown up! I’m very thankful for that.

Several years ago, our Great Dane had gastric torsion (stomach flips over and twists). I’ve never cleaned up so much puke in my life. I’d be working on one spot with the shop vac while he looked on, puking more.

Oh God… I didn’t know kids puked that much. Boy, I can’t wait to me a mom some day!

I swear my kids always seemed to have grape or cherry Kool Aid before they threw up. When my daughter was little she had to sleep with about 1000 stuffed animals and she would never make it out of bed when she puked. So, we were cleaning her, the sheets, the comforter and a ton of stuffed animals in the middle of the night. I am pretty sure more than one stuffed animal got thrown away instead of washed.

It’s a bummer, but I guess that’s what we signed up for.

My oldest son is 5 and he never complains or says anything about being sick. So he comes in to our room last Wednesday and announces, “I’m sick. I’m not going to school today.”

Mrs. Grouse and I looked at each other, both wondering if he had somehow figured out how to angle for a free vacation day. Then he says, “Uh oh, out of the way.” and runs by us and barfs in the toilet. So, I guess.

Yep, he never complains. He was chucking for the next 2 days.

Feel terrible for the poor little mites.

Thats a good kid. Seems to me when they announce Im going to be sick it means it on its way up and you better run for cover.

I’ve never seen a kid like my boy was when he was sick. He would never say a word—even when he was little. I would hear him in the bathroom making that special sound we all know so well. I would jump up and get him a damp washcloth and he would look up at me with those big eyes and apologize for waking me up. That ripped me up inside every time he did it. The girls on the other hand—never mind—they were girls

Because I am tradition-bound to never, ever speculate as to the sex of an unborn baby (doing so brings on 21 years of bad luck, in case you’re wondering), both of our kids were surprises in terms of boy or girl.

After the birth of our second of two boys, I told my wife that secretly, I had kind of hoped that maybe it’d be a little girl for her.

And Mrs. Grouse looked at me and said, “Oh, no, don’t be. I’m a former little girl and you don’t kown the trouble NOT having a girl has saved us.

Ummm, ok then.
