It ain't all sunshine and rainbows when you have a newborn

Newborns are a handful, but it's all about how you handle things...

As the headline says, having a newborn baby isn't all sunshine and rainbows. 

But we have to say, from personal experience, that the good outweighs the awkward, weird, and disastrous. 

As a parent, you might have to experience the explosive 'poo' moments personally and we can firmly say it is a humbling experience. 

If you are wondering what we are referring to, then you obviously are an explosive 'poo' virgin and that's okay too. 

Newborns are known to have explosive releases of poo and it can be quite extreme. Not only does it leave a complete mess, it comes as a shock to whoever is holding the baby at the time of the explosion. 

In case you are wondering, what about the nappy, doesn't it hold it all together? The answer is, not even the most secure of nappies can hold the explosive poo. 

Parents who found the whole affair quite funny and were not prepared for it shared their experience with the explosive poo on TikTok

It was evident that they had their priorities in order as they got the phone to video it for their archives and maybe to embarrass their baby in his/her older years.
