Or bad, depending on intent.I have never been shat or pissed upon. Five kids. I did something good in a previous life.
That kind of stuff makes up for things like getting pissed on. I've gotten hit with pee and poop and my wife has gotten barfed on. But having a 2.5 year old act all cheerful and randomly tell you he loves you or carry on a silly conversation makes it worthwhile. We recently moved and he told me he thought his new room was beautiful, made the pain in the ass of painting, etc worth it.Wow. Seeing your little guy smile for the first time is really indescribable.
I went through the same with getting sick a bunch. My kid had ear infections constantly. It turned out he needed ear tubes which was painful to go through (watching him wake up after the process and freaking out). After that the ear infections went away but he kept getting sick though. We eventually switched to a more expensive but much cleaner/nicer place and he rarely gets sick now at 2.5 years old.Yes. Yes it is.
So my kid started doing the pre-school type of thing with mom once a week (she's 2 next week) and has gotten sick a bunch. Yay. She currently has an ear infection and some Hand Foot Mouth Disease in her throat. And I think she's getting all her molar in at once. She's never cried this much ever.
And I have a 2 month old at home.
Hate to be a party-pooper here, but babies don't start social smiles till around 1.5-2 months old. Anything before that is just a reflex, usually to pooping or farting.Wow. Seeing your little guy smile for the first time is really indescribable.
Generally, reflex smiles tend to be shorter and occur randomly, when the baby is sleeping or tired. Real smiles, on the other hand, occur in response to something, like seeing her mama's face or hearing a sibling's high-pitched voice, and they are consistent, Dr. Gettleman explains. When it's the real deal, you will see the emotion expressed in your baby's eyes.
When Do Babies Start Smiling?
I grew up having roughly 4-5 ear surgeries (multiple tubes, they fell out). Finally they needed to graph skin onto my ear drum to cover it up.I went through the same with getting sick a bunch.

Yeah, when your kid clings to you crying like mad while you try to calm her, getting puked on is the least of your worries.
