Say good bye to privacy

My son has learned to open door quite efficiently. Pretty good for not even being two yet. Looks like the days of pooing in private are over though. So far he seems to always shut the door after he enters though, so that's good.

 

WOOHOO!!!!! he can open doors. aiden was doing that at 8 months open close doors. privacy went right ou the door when aiden was born though. Just another wonderous part of being a parent thats all. i havent had a shower or bath by myself in three years. havent used the restroom without an audience in two yrs. havent even been on a date with my husband since aiden was born. just more things for oyu to look forward to thats all.

 

Do you know what I would give to go potty alone. It's been nearly five years since I have had any privacy. If he sees me heading to the bathroom he races to get in there first. If I do get in there and lock the door, he stands outside and kicks the door and screams to be let in. And he can push the door open a little when it's locked so he will stand there and spy. "I see your boobies mommy." I just want to pee or get dressed in peace.

i've never been to the toilet alone since my son could crawl (cos i hated not being able to see him) and he's 2 and half now, but now i have him and my 1 and half daughter come in with me and decide they want to play with their toys at the same time...lol. One time my son went and got his chair and decided to sit in the toilet with me...LOL but at the moment i don't mind cos maybe it will teach him to use the loo,

 

It was a bad joke. I haven't done any restroom related acitivities privately for a year and a half either. It seems like I struck a nerve.

 

oh no i was just saying enjoy your what lil privacy you have cuz it will all be gone sooner or later. sorry to come off the way i did. i was just giving some examples in my day to day life where privacy is no longer there. again sorry if i seemed rude.

 

Not a problem. This is the problem with the internet, you can't see the emotion or facail expressions, or hear the tones in the voice. It makes it hard to tell if someone is being sarcastic or happy or sad.....

 

lol Yep, you'll get it back. I still have to lock the door to take a bath without DD coming in though. I start filling a tub, and she's right on my heels.

"Whatcha doin' Mama? Gonna take a bath? Are ya gonna put in bubbles? Can *I* put in the bubbles? Can I get you a towel? Do you need a book? Should I bring you a phone? Can I have some chocolate milk? Did you see the bruise on my knee? Can it get a band-aid? Can we play Uno when you're done? Mama... MAMA!!! Why'd ya lock the door Mama?!?!?!?!?"

Really, I'm told it gets better though
love,
mom

 

I never shut the door before i had skyler, and hes 2 now, I just dont really care! but sometimes i want to have "darlene time" and i lock the bathroom door and get bubbles and candles and incense and soak in the garden tub, THEN everyone wants in! sheeesh!
