When You Grow Old

Baby has a weird habit of pooping only in her diapers. Put her in the throne, her body will be switched off to constipation mode. Today after pooping in her diaper, some of the pee leaked out onto her legs and floor. It freaked me out to see ‘poop soaked pee’ on the floor! After wiping the floor with disinfectant, I hurriedly carried her to the bathroom… by carrying her under the armpit, which put a great strain on my beat up back. As I was washing her butt in the bathroom, this was our conversation:

Me – baby, why don’t you poo poo in the potty huh? You are killing me with this. My back will break if I carry you like this. You better take good care of me when I grow old. I love you so much now. Will you take good care of me when I grow old? Will you carry me and wash me up when I grow old? Will you love me very much too when mummy’s old ?

Baby – I will carry you and wash your ‘phet phet’ (our term for the down under haha!) when you poo poo. I will wash your diaper and panty. I will put you on the potty ok?

Then she whispered this to me, in a guilty tone but with a sheepish smile :

Baby – But I will cane you if you don’t eat your food ha ha ha…

Me – WHAT? How can you say that? God will punish you if you cane your mother. It is a sin.

Baby – no lar, I won’t cane you ha ha ha…

Then later in the evening when I was dressing Baby up, she said this to me : “mummy, when you grow old, I will wash your phet phet after you poo poo, I will also wear diaper for you and wash your panty ok?”

I wonder if I will live to a ripe old age to watch my girls go to Uni, watch them walk down the aisle with their other half, enjoy my grand kids and my grand kids’ kids. And if I do, I wonder if I will be healthy enough to savor the last journey of my life. I certainly don’t want to burden my girls and have them wash my pooped up phet phet and change my pooped out leaking adult diapers! Never!

  1. HAHAHA!! Wonder if you would do it for me? Of course youll live to a ripe old age. Health Freaks would never pee or poo in diapers, even in their old age. Remember you’ve good genes. None of your paternal or maternal parents needed diapers, they used the toilet …

  2. Barb, that’s why I MUST put this in writing, so that she can read this in future hahaha!

    Mummy… what comes around goes around, right? I have to do it so that my children will do it for me too when I grow old, haahahaha!!

  3. That is FUNNY! However, I do not believe you’d be “a ripe old age” when the kids go to Uni; you’d be a mature woman having fun and travelling! Trust me, you don’t want to be like a friend of another friend who just became a great-grandma at age 58!! It is sad.

  4. funny post.. LOL .. yes, have to write down for the record …

    Agreed with your mum, you are such a heath freak mum, you will sure live to a ripe old age… and also laugh at yr mum’s comment..

  5. Baby C is so sweet :-).

    i hope i’ll be able to grow old to see my kids going uni, getting married and having their own kids too. i’ll rather not burden them with my old-people sickness. would rather stay in an old folks’ home if that happens 🙂

  6. LOL!! I hope I can grow old healthy-ly and watch them taking care of their own kids (see, not me taking care their kids ya! :P). I certainly hope that they wont have a chance to wash my phet phet 😛 else it means I’m old and blurry till I terberak on my own pants. Whenever my mom puts on diaper for QQ, QQ will say to my mom “popo, next time I help u put on diapers ok”. And my mom will yell “CHOYY!!!”. Hahahaha!!

  7. my elder boy too would only poop in his diapers last time… give her some time (and some treats) and she’ll be doing it in the potty soon 🙂 good luck

    that was so sweet of baby to say that… aaawwww… doubt my boy would ever say that!! hahahaha

  8. haha…..the cane part is so funny…..

    Yes, you will live to a ripe old age if you practice healthy living at present. It does have the impact though. I also wish to see my kids grows up, entering U and getting married and have cucu cicik for me. haha….
