Infant Oversharing and a Crappy 'Poo-stache'

Posted by Madeline Holler

I'm hardly the spokesmodel for keeping family secrets, giving out personal details for a living like I do. So I'm going to have to go along with the thinking behind this onesie, which announces "I'm an accident."

I figure it serves Junior in a couple of ways: (1) makes his mommy and daddy seem spontaneous, cool and not terribly regimented (read: on-demand nursing!). (2) It gives Little Precious a head-start on oversharing -- she'll need it to get decent Facebook and MySpace pages going.

What I can't get behind, however, is (1) the name of the Zazzle company selling these (The Pea and the Poo) and (2) the company's other original design featuring a "poo-stache." Yeah, I get "branding" and "having fun." But for the sake of decency! That smiling face -- the graphic stand-in for YOUR CHILD -- is licking shit from its upper lip!

Stick with the oversharing. But I'd recommend avoiding the combed cotton scat Ts. Boundaries, people, boundaries.

I don't know how licking crap from your face falls into a "having fun" category. Blech.

I am a new Mommy.  I have a 10 month old.  Please explain to me how a baby gets a poo-stache?  I MUST be missing something?
