As a working mom, I’m about to let you in on one of my best-kept secrets. This bad boy:
A Burp Blanket, compliments of Sullivan & Sawyer. A few weeks ago, I was lamenting on how often I come to work with vomit on my shoulder. & sometimes down my back because Harrison has this incredible talent of aiming right over the shoulder. So regular burp cloths, even cloth diapers, simply don’t cut it. Really, he’s better than most Olympians & I’m pretty sure he’d be on the gold medal stand in Baby Olympics. Gross, right? But that’s what happens when you a) have a child & b) have a child with reflux. You get puked on. & it’s pretty much LAW that the moment you put on something nice & are two steps from your front door, your child pulls a Reagan & you need a young priest & an old priest to get the peas off your t-shirt.
The owner of Sullivan & Sawyer had the same issue, saying, “I was just sick of getting barfed on & it all going on my shoulder & down my chest.” & so the Burp blanket was born. (side note: this is NOT a sling. please do not carry your child,small canine, or grocery produce in it)
& my dry cleaning bill thanks it. Profusely.
She also makes paci ties that are DARLING & half the price of ones you find in store (meaning that Harrison’s paci stays on his person & not on the floor of Baby Gap, praise God) & my personal favorite, the bib clips:
Let’s say you’re out to dinner or it is laundry day & the only thing clean is a dish towel. It’s chicken-rice from a jar time for the tot, so you snag the dish towel, clip each end, & BAM! you have a bib.
(enter in where I wish I was this talented & creative to think of such things!)
So here’s the awesome news for readers – Sullivan & Sawyer are sponsoring a give-away! One lucky reader will win a Burp Wrap, Paci Tie, & Bib Clip!

p.s. Canadians, you are in luck! You also qualify! So to be a lawful citizen, please leave the answer to 2+2= __ at the end of your entries. You know, but put the number that 2+ 2 equals. Yes, I’m serious.
The "sperm donor" was holding Noah (after feeding the little man standing up and holding him 'round the belly — idiot) and decided it would be a fun time to play airplane. Being a complete and utter moron, he held Noah up over his head and with a great big smile, Noah tossed his milk flavored (and curdled!) cookies right in Christopher's mouth.
I feel as if that deserves a puppy for Noah's impeccable timing and ability to read his Momma's mind.
We like paisley.
Blair, I just have to say that your baby boy is the most beautiful one I've ever seen. Next to my own. Of course.
When my little girl first arrived, I was absolutely DYING of some serious cabin fever. I called my husband at work and practically begged him to come home early to get us both out of the house to go ANYWHERE. So, to Costco we go. Little Finley in her cutest shopping outfit, my husband in his Brooks Brothers suit and me in some ill-fitting maternity pants and a t-shirt that had definitely seen better days. We're walking through Costco and I feel so proud of my baby girl, my handsome husband and the simple fact that 2 weeks after giving birth, I've actually loaded up a stroller, washed my face and am out in public. Then my husband wrecks it for me by telling me that I've got baby vomit all down my back.
And you know what? I didn't even care. That's when you know you're a momma! HA!
PS – I LURVE the pink flower-y print 3rd from the left!
Hope I win!!!!
I was SUPER excited to finally get Baby out for a walk on a nice day. Got her all situated in the Ergo, got the dog leashed, and put my hand on the front door knob and BAM! VOM ALL OVER MY CHEST AND DOWN INTO THE ERGO. Two things I'm thankful for: 1) That this occurred inside our home instead of mid-walk, and 2) That I was still in my ratty-tshirt-housebound-mommy uniform, so the vom didn't really decrease the wearability of the shirt.
Is it bad that my first comment is a shameless attempt to snag a giveaway?
Best vom story so far: in church, DS decides it's a good time to show his daddy what he had for breakfast…by depositing said breakfast all over daddy's nice polo shirt. Daddy, who doesn't get puked on half as much as I do, was very much PO'd. I laughed, even though my husband didn't find it at all funny!
We were getting ready for church one bright Sunday morning. Having a handsome son who likes to stare around during church, I decided to dress him in a cute little polo shirt and khaki pants. And for the first time since his birth, I decided to dress a little nicer than my normal short-sleeved shirt and khaki combo. We were running early, for a change, and thought we might have a chance at a decent pew.
Miles had other plans. As I was putting him in his carseat to leave, he projectile vomited to such a degree that he covered himself, me, and his carseat in one go.
We skipped church and took baths, instead. I'm sure God understands.
Oh, and I like the 5th pattern from the left(dark blue w/ polka dots)–it strikes me as the most boyish of the bunch!
Oh, and I LOVE the blue polka dots. Very classy.
Really? My BEST baby vomit story? Jaden and Harrison could battle it out for the gold for "most inopportune moment to puke all over your beloved mommy." This is a daily, nay, almost hourly, occurrance at our house (and grandma's house, daycare, church, the grocery store, the library…). My favorite was the time when my husband and I got all dressed up on New Year's Eve for a NIGHT OUT sans le bebe. We were going to the hibachi grill then a concert in downtown Nashville. As I was snuggling my sweet 2 week old little bug and telling him goodbye, he looked at me lovingly in the eyes, opened his mouth (no doubt to say his first words, "I love you, mom), reared his head back……..and yakked all down my front, back, shoulder, neck, boobs. You name it, it was a formula-covered mess. Thank you, Son. I am two-weeks post-partum, nothing fits, and the one thing that looks halfway decent is now white, sticky, and smelly. And our house is an hour away. Needless to say, the diaper bag now contains a backup shirt for me at all times.
I love this idea. Getting ready in the morning means I don't put on a shirt until 1.5 seconds before I walk out the door. Jaden will be so conditioned to seeing bras that when he's 13 and in the movie theater with a girl he'll be all, "is that all ya got?"
Great giveaway.
this has my vote. hilarious! particularly the "is that all you got?" comment… love it.
PS I like the green paisley-ish, 3rd from the right.
Oh, and I don't have Twitter, but i am using this as my shameless 3rd entry because, dang it, I need something to keep the puke off my shoulder!
And I follow your blog so to me that's worthy of a 3rd post. But if you disqualify me, I understand.
My very awesome youngest aunt (she was the cool one who was daring enough to call us butt nuggets in front of my parents growing up) always has been a part of my and my sister's lives. But she and my younger sister Rachel are closer than anyone else due to this moment:
One fine day, she lifted my sister so lovingly into the air and smiled at her, talking the inevitable baby talk, and as she looked up at my sister with her mouth gaping open, Rachel took advantage of it.
Rachel puked right into her mouth. Yum.
likin' the bright blue polka dots.
I follow on twitter: @amomwriting
Omygawd. The best story is actually of my husband playing "airplane" with Noah and he was just a laughing and giggling and it was the CUTEST thing I had ever seen. And then all of a sudden…BLAH! All over my husbands face, in the mouth and down his chest. I was crying, literally doubled over, crying. I swear my hubby practically threw my child at me as he ran to the bathroom in complete horror! Classic!
Love the 5th from the right – bright blue polka dots! Thanks!
Already follow you on Twitter
My darling husband (as well as his father) stll freaks out if any spit up so nuch as touches him! My parents even bought him a sweater for Christmas that has sort of a white inkblot effect on it to camoflauge the dreaded spit up!
My nephew loved to be held above your head while you would tickle his belly. Through squeals and giggles, he somehow managed to vomit…on my face…and in my mouth. I mean, who doesn't make funny faces and have your mouth open when you are playing with an infant. Yup. I swallowed his vomit. Now that is love.
Btw, I really love the green and brown polka dot!
Ok, worst puke story EVER! Cue in Wedding day thoughts. It was a 'perfect' day. My make-up looked great, my hair was perfect, my dress fit like a glove-I was having a fashionable great day
My niece was my flower girl even though she was just a few months old. We were in the middle of getting wedding party pictures and she spit up all over my brother-in-law. I laughed so hard I almost peed my pants( actually my cute Mrs. panties). Well, I should have remembered that Karma is a b!tch and just before I walked down the aisle and my sister walked my little flower girl into the sanctuary I leaned over to kiss my sweet niece and BAMB! That's when it happened sweet little LJ chucked her lunch up all over me and my beautiful dress!
I managed to get the spit up wiped off my face, out of my hair and off my dress but as I stood up front during the lighting of the unity candle my dear husband whispered: "you look fantastic, but why do you smell like vomit?"
To this day I still laugh/cringe at that memory of my wedding day.
Maybe that all happened because God new that one day I would have a chance to win a fabulous give away. lol
I vote for Amy all the way! Lord knows I have had my share of puke down my boobs, all over my hair, carpet, etc. especially now with the vom baby. But this takes the cake.
I love the dark brown and green poka dots.
I love all things poka dots and my daughter's entire room is chocolate and green. 
My baby hardly ever used to spit up or vomit. On the day of his baptism, he was a little fussy in the morning. We ate breakfast, got ready and went to the baptism ceremony. As the father lifted my precious Noah to present him as the newest church member, he puked all over himself and Father Herman.
I. WAS. MORTIFIED.
By the way, I love the stripes.
I follow you on twitter – vernie_mac.
Okay, I didn't follow the rules and posted that I love the stripes with my vom story.
Anyway, I like the stripes pattern.
I loooooooooove the blue polka dots!
your babe is cute. you are cute :]
Dealing with a child who has reflux (and colic) since 4 weeks I have my share of vomit stories. The one that always stands out to me is…one day after about 12 hours on non-stop screaming and throwing up I layed down in bed with my husband, he leans over to kiss me good night and whispers in my ear, only I couldn't hear him. I said "what did you say" he pulls away and looks in my ear and there it was, dried puke (a LOT) in my ear. I had wondered why I couldn't hear all that well that day and realized that when I was burping the little man I felt something warm in my ear but with all the screaming just forgot about it. Pretty gross!!
I like the blue polkadots =)
My best vomit story didn't happen to me..it happened to my hubbs. He was standing naked in the pantry (if you knew him this would NOT shock you) holding a naked baby. I looked at him and knew this would end badly because Holden had just ate & his little man bits were exposed to the air which always without fail means he's going to pee. Like clockwork Holden puked all over Dave's shoulder which caused him to scream for a burp cloth..then shocked by the elements and the screaming Holden peed all over my naked husband & my pantry.
A burp blanket would have been a super thing to have at that moment.
Love the blue & Brown Polka Dots! These are adorable
Oh and my puke story. At 3 in the morning he puked into the front of my nightgown. It ran down my chest, stomach and left leg. Lovely.
i totally have one! okay, so it was about three weeks after my girl was born, i was SO bored and fed up with this long c-section recovery, that i told my hubs that i was going with or without him to Target. he got ready, we loaded the babe into the car, and headed out. after about twenty minutes, she got pretty fussy, so i took her out to carry her for the last few isles of things we needed. well, not more than 2 minutes out of her carseat, she decided to throw up ALL.OVER.MY.BODY. you think im kidding? no, it went all the way down my shirt, was DRIPPING from the bottom onto the floor, dripping from my hair, all over my face. i was practically crying, hubby was dying of laughter, and the darling baby was fast asleep. i know i looked crazy, running around with puke all over the floor, not knowing if i should try and attempt to clean myself off, check out, or just flee to the confines of my home. we chose the latter.
i love the second to the left, the pink and green. and im following on twitter–mefsta777
We were at our friends' house visiting and catching up when my baby boy suddenly came down with the stomach flu (though I didn't know it at the time). He was fussy so I tried nursing him but he wasn't interested. Finally I sat him up on my lap just in time for him to vomit. "Luckily", I caught it all in my cupped hands! yum! But I was so relieved the puke didn't get all over their white carpet and leather couches!! My husband took the baby from me and I got all washed up and walked back into the room, only to witness the baby upchuck ALL OVER their living room in a projectile fashion.
To top it off, our friend ended up getting the stomach flu too.
I like the blue circles on the far right side.
THANK YOU!
Best story… my little guy also has reflux and he has a great ability to spit up GALLONS! Seriously, it's like I feed him 4 oz and it multiplies in his stomach and comes back out as a gallon.
So one night I got him ready for bed, fed him, and was sitting on the end of my bed to burp him. He opened his mouth and it was like a fire hose. Milk went everywhere – all over me, all over him, all over the bed. So we got everyone cleaned up, and I put clean sheets on the bed. Put him to bed in the bassinet and went to sleep.
Got up in the middle of the night to feed him, and then handed him to my husband to go change him. He promptly projectiled all over my husband and the bed, again. So here we are at 3am, changing our bed sheets for the 2nd time that night.
Wake up at about 5:30 for another feeding, and – you guessed it – he lets loose again and I find myself changing the sheets for a 3rd time! That's our record so far…
These are all so cute! My favorite is the brown with green circles on the bib clips… though I love the green circles one on on the far right of the pacifier clips, too!
I'm following you on twitter, too. @abear23
Best puke story: After being at work for three hours yesterday morning, I finally get to take a bathroom break. As I'm washing my hands, I look in the mirror, to find my shoulder completely covered in dried baby vomit. Why hadn't anyone told me?! And, the best part is that I hadn't even held Noah that morning. I guess I should examine my clothes after they go through the wash…. and I should probably find the time to look in the mirror before I leave the house each morning. I NEED that Burp Blanket!
And, I like the pattern on the far right
I think that the burp blanket looks like a fantastic solution!!! Today was actually one of our worst puke experiences so far. I had my 4 month old daughter at the MD's office. I was dressed for work, and my mother was coming to meet us to take her home to watch her. Mia threw up on me as soon as I took her out of her carrier, on my shoulder. being 25 minutes from home, and work in the opposite direction, I was just going to suck it up and deal with it at work. I picked her up from being weighed, patting her back a couple times (in a soothing way I thought), turned to speak to the nurse, and felt something warm sliding down the front of my button down shirt. She COVERED me! I had to stop at the Big Box Store and buy a new shirt before I could go to work!
I really like the 3rd print over form the left, the pink paisley design!
I LOOOOOOOOVE the 3rd from the left on the paci clips!!

Best vomit story – just fed my son and was burping him over my shoulder. He let out a little baby burp so I turned towards him, mouth open to say "Awwww…, there you go." Just as soon as my mouth was wide open he turns, too, and pukes into my mouth.
LOVE the houndstooth.
Can I promise to follow you on Twitter once I figure out what the hell that is all about?
I had my 5 month old daughter sitting in my bed after her morning feeding. She totally puked on my pillow and in my dash to get out of the house and off to work, I forgot about it. I came home that night and laid my head down to go to sleep to find myself resting on crusty spit-up.
Oh the life of a momma!
I adore the pink pattern 2nd from the left!
I gave up breast feeding when my daughter was about 4 weeks old, so there I was standing in front of the formula can trying to figure out the powder to water ratio I needed to make a 3 oz bottle. Instead of putting in 1.5 scoops, my new mommy brain decided that 3 scoops was what I needed. After looking at the finished bottle filled with a thick glue-y substance, I went ahead and gave it to my child who drank it down like a champ. After she was done, she laid there staring off in space, not moving. I was scared something was wrong. I checked the can again and realized my mistake and thought I had poisoned her. Just as that thought came, my child started choking and so I lifted her up and out flew more vomit than I saw after 7 months of morning sickness! It was everywhere…both our hair, down our fronts, down our backs, and all over furniture. She was okay, but I was traumatized.
I like the first pattern on the left.
I lurve the polka dot one on the far right.
Vomit story –
My son convienently enough attends a daycare int he same building I work in. So most days to go down around noon to check in and say hi/play with him. Occasionally little J decides that the outfit I had chosen for the day need a little something extra. So I often come back up stairs with vomit down my back or on my front. It's like a 2nd lunch…..
I am telling the story of a friend that was at my house last week…her daughter was acting like she had a nasty taste in her mouth which we assumed cuz she had been eating some of Jack's toys…well then after feeding her a lil yogurt my friends daughter started to make this noise more so my friend was holding her and all of a sudden vomit (not just spit up) started spewing out all over my friend and only a quarter sized drop on my carpet and the rest was all over my friend's shirt!
I love the blue and green polkadot burp blanket that you have and for the paci and big clip I like the light blue and light green polka dot one on the far right of the second set you have.
I follow you on twitter (akspriss)
I like the green and brown poka dots.
Um…. vomit fear?… 2 times the babies=2 times the vomit in just a few days. Scared, very scared.

Best (worst) vomit story. J has reflux too but he's getting better the older he is. This past Saturday Husband and I met some friends for brunch at a nice restaurant in town. You know the type…. hardwood floors, nice ambiance, never too loud. J was completely angelic all through brunch… couldn't have been quieter if he was asleep. When we were just finishing eating, he started to get a little fussy. I got him out of the carrier and started to snuggle him. Husband wanted to hold him so he picks him up, stands up, and starts to walk around the table a little to calm him down. Just as he gets over towards the nearest table (who had just gotten their food), I look up in time to see a J spewing spit up like someone turned on a faucet. Not only does it look gross, but it hit the hardwood floor with a very loud "SPLAT." Spread out like wildfire across the floor. I've never been so embarrassed. I was on my hands and knees mopping up spit up and muttering apologies for a good five minutes.
And I like the last one on the right.
And also, WordPress just chastised me. It said "You are posting comments too quickly. Slow down." Which I think is (sadly) the funniest thing I've seen all day.
Also I follow you on twitter… lawmomma77
I went to give my son a kiss when he was about two months old, and for some reason went for his lips instead of his cheek. And he puked. Right in my mouth.
I like the pattern on the far right the best.

Best baby vomit story- not a great one.
This morning as I am dropping my little one off at daycare she burps and I tell her good job. Since I was in my Army uniform and a fleece jacket, I couldn't tell she spit up. It wasn't until I handed her to ms. A in the infant room that I realized I had vomit all down my fleece. My daughter, also covered. I didn't even have time to change her. I felt bad.
Best vom story: My first child, Tucker, was a spitter. Spit up on everything, everywhere, all the time. He had a whole drawer dedicated just to bibs and another just to burp clothes. Full loads of laundry dedicated just to spit-up related clothing! On to the story part now…One night, sitting on the couch, he had to be less than 4 or 5 months old, we were playing. I was holding him out in front of me and would lift him into the air to make him smile and laugh. My husband warned me not to. He said, "You know you just fed him, he's gonna spew if you don't be careful!" My reply, "No, he's been good today!". Not barely two seconds later, I give him a big ol' kiss on the lips and what does Tucker do back? You guessed it. Spit up right in my mouth! I practically threw the kid at his father and gagged my way to the bathroom! I guess you'd say I learned my lesson! Ha!
Okay you said pick a favorite. But I can't my favorites are 1, 3, and 7 (from left to right).
P.S. Love the purple ones…I have twin girls now so girly for us
And I do follow you on twitter…my twitter name is twinkietotmom! Thanks
Hey Chic! Seeing as I have a 2.5 year old I've been puked on many a time. But, I have to say that my least favorite and most grossed out time was the most recent. 3 days before Christmas I was rocking Connor to sleep as usual. He fell asleep rather quickly but as soon as his eyes shut the moaning began. At first I thought he was just having a bad dream or something but then all of the sudden he shot up and the thickest, smelliest, nastiest stuff came shooting from his mouth. All over himself, all over me – my chest, arm, leg, all over half of the glider and a huge puddle on the floor. I didn't know a 2.5 year old stomach could hold so much. When he was finished he looked at me and said "Mommy, that's a big mess!". I had to strip both of us down right then and there, give him and I both a bath, run a load of laundry and clean up the chair and floor all before attempting sleep again. But, he was perfectly well for Christmas!
Oh, and my favorite pattern is the 9th one.
And I follow you on Twitter but I'm just a stalker, I don't have my own page.
my best vomit story happened to me unfortunately! when my sister was a baby (we are 8 years apart) i was playing "airplane" with her. I didn't know she had just eaten and when i was laying on the ground holding her above me she threw up all over me but thanks to the fun "airplane" game i had my mouth wide open b/c it was so fun and i was making funny gaga noises people make at babies. Well anyway, she threw up her entire bottle of formula in my MOUTH. To this day i cringe thinking about it.
My little Ezra also has reflux, so as you know when he spits up it's not just cute little dribbles from his perfect little plump lips, it's projectile vomiting 3 feet in front or 3 feet behind me in massive amounts. I mop my floors once a week while he is napping, and EVERYTIME like clockwork, as soon as I bring him upstaires from his crib he vomits massive amounts all over my nice clean freshly mopped floor. Now not only is it in a puddle, it is dripped across for a good 5-15 feet while I'm running for a paper towel. Oy!
Fav pattern is the dark blue, green and light blue circles
I always wanted to be Canadian. No really, I did. I'm pretty sure the answer to 2+2=_ is actually 4, but I could be wrong. It's been awhile since I took a math class, some things might have changed.
Anyhow, I didn't look at the patterns 'cause I don't care & I do follow you on Twitter & most of my vomit stories involve drunks not babies. However, I still want to win cool shit!
For my 2nd entry, I'd like to point out that I even fail as a Canadian since I didn't properly follow the directions. I was s'pose to put the answer at the end of my post, not the beginning. Pathetic, eh?
Fortunately, my baby NEVER puked. Never spit up, not so much as even a gurgle. (Don't glare, this came back to haunt me) Until one night she was crying and holding her tummy, so I let her sleep with me. Big mistake. As her clammy little cheek was pressed firmly to mine, I heard a noise akin to that of a heaving dog after he's had one too many pizza crusts. But then the noise was dampened, because suddenly my EAR was full. Full of what? What do you think! Puke! Yes, I had a swimmer's ear-ful of PUKE!
My hubby is almost deathly afraid of baby puke. Christmas night, while we were opening presents at my parents house, he was holding Brayden up in the air. All of the sudden we hear a gigantic burp, and I turn around to see that Brayden had puked all over my hubby's face! He tries so hard to stay away from it that he definitely deserved it!
I love the blue and green circled pattern! So cute!
My personal favorite is the bright stripes, but as this would be a gift to my brother's newborn if I won, he'd prefer the 9th one- blues and greens

Once I was all dressed up to go see RENT the musical with some friends, and I was feeding my kiddo before leaving the house. I burped him and he spit up ALL over me. I had spit-up in my cleavage. So. awesome.
I love the black with blue dots. So cute!

I was going to go out with a girlfriend of mine to lunch. I was so excited cause it was the first time since I had Jackson that I was going out with my friends. I felt disgusting since none of my clothes fit right but I found a shirt that I looked decent in. My boobs were huge from the brestfeeding so I decided to show them off a bit. Ya gotta flaunt what ya got! lol Anyways, Jackson was playing on his playmat so I picked him up to say goodbye. I held him up in the air and he spit up right. down. my. shirt. and right between the boobs. It was so gross.
My best vom story is when I went to pick up Logan out of his crib and I was holding him up close to my face and talking and screaming to him, he was screaming at me, and BAM vomit in my mouth!!! My child straight up puked in my mouth and I had no choice but to swallow it! That was the nastiest thing ever…puked up formula from his feeding 2hours ago=mostly stomach acid bile!!!!! I even had puke breath afterwards! I swear he was aiming for my mouth and so proud of himself too!
My favorite print is the brown and blue polka dotted bip clip,….the one farthest right. I love love love polka dots!
I love the purple twisty one!
When I was 18 I worked at the Disney-MGM Studios at Playhouse Disney live on stage. A family of 6, dad holding a three month old, came through the turnstile. Baby Boy, not exaggerating, projectile vomited over 5 feet behind him. Dad was covered with green vomit down to his shoes. Older brother had his shirt and shorts covered. Dad didn't even realize the kid was vomiting until I said "Sir, your son!" That's when he turned to look at me and still vomiting baby hit the brother down the front. The turnstiles were covered, so was a rope that divided up the queue. Approximately 300 people that were crowding to see Bear in the Big Blue House on stage froze. A coworker got a manager on the walkie talkie. They reorganized the queue and so the guests could go around the disneyese for puke: Protein Spill. It took over an hour for three custodians to take the turnstile apart and clean it for the next show. The manager and I were worried about the family potentially having their vacation ruined because of the projectile vomit of doom, so I asked if I could take the dad and brother to get them some new, free clothes. She gave me her "get anything you want from the store for free" card so I walked them down to the closest gift shop and we got completely new outfits, hats, socks, and shoes for Dad, brother, and baby. I also organized for the family to get preferred seating at another showing of Bear in the Big Blue House show since they missed it as well as reservations for the dining and firework show. I was able to salvage the vacations of several hundred people, and get a family a couple hundred dollars worth of freebies because record breaking projectile vomit covered several people. I ended up getting employee of the month for that entire situation, and I will never underestimate the power and capacity of something that looks so small again.
Let me tell you that if we were to meet irl very soon, Harrison and William would need to dual it out because I still believe that William is the worst at spitup and vomming lol. So, we were at the pediatrician's office sitting in the waiting room and William let out the loudest burp. Little kids across the room were giggling, hell, even the adults were. I knew that meant trouble. But I wasn't quick enough getting the burp cloth… so William spits up, no basically vomits… and it gets down my shirt, down my pants, and down my underwear (gross, no?) . I try and try to get it all off in the bathroom, but there was a massive amount of evidence. So, when we get into the exam room and the Dr came in he laughed at me. LAUGHED! Then he asked me if this was common. I told him yes… which is why now he is on Similac Sensitive RS and Zantac, which still don't help! I don't wear nice clothes anymore. I need this thing!!! Lol!
I love love love the blue polka dots!

We were out to brunch with friends (non-parent friends, I should say!!) and Henry was being super great… smiley, adorable, really alert. Everyone was commenting on how cute he was, when he discovered his face in the large mirror positioned behind our table – and promptly spit up ALL over the place. So you could see it twice, from every angle
I like the brown and blue polka dots!
I was babysitting the three adorable little ladies of a doc I work with. Everyone was in bed and I was dozing on the couch. Just then the youngest, who was two at the time, started crying. I went into her room and picked her up from her crib. She nestled her head under my chin a few seconds later started making a horrible noise in her throat. Then out it came… a fountain of nasty smelly chunky vomit all down in my shirt, in my bra, down the front of both of us. As she was puking I rushed into the bathroom leaving a trail of vom along the way. When I set her down to assess the situation I knew there was no other option but to remove all of my clothing from the waist up.
I cleaned and changed her and put her in her crib where she promptly fell back asleep. And there I was TOPLESS cleaning up vomit when I heard the front door open…
I managed to cover up before they made it in the room but needless to say I was mortified. He paid me very handsomely for my troubles.
What I am most proud of, though, is that I didn't gag ONCE throughout the entire ordeal.
I like the second to last one.. the blue and green…

I was babysitting my Sophomore year of college for a Momma who took a night class. She had three little boys, one of which was about three months old. She had just fed him before I got there, and when I took him and sat down, while she gave me instructions, he started coughing/hiccuping. She commented "Oh, don't worry, he never throws up when he does that"
Pause. Two. Three. Four.
ALL DOWN MY FRONT. Like, I'd say around 6-8 ounces. My pants were SOAKED.I don't remember where I was going after her house, but it was somewhere semi important. So I had to wear a pair of her PJ pants (AWKWARD) while I washed my pants there. And they didn't get dry. And I had to wear wet denim *shudders*
That is all. Keevia doesn't spit up. Although she did spit up down my bra earlier today… but really, she's 4 months (*SOB*) and shes maybe spit up 10 times?
I adore the purple one. Or the one right to the left of it (the blue checky one?)
P.S. Why is the second question numbered 3 and the third question numbered 2?

When we were on vacation visiting my grandparents this winter Milo vomited up all of his food for the evening, including yogurt. It shot out of his mouth while he was still sitting at the table and was EVERYWHERE – the table, the carpet, the chair, his highchair – (and the yogurt SMELLS!) Thank god my mom was there to clean up the kitchen and my dripping baby because I could barely keep things down after that smell!
