Hey moms this is Carrie Lauth
from Natural Moms Talk Radio, I had a couple of things I had to share.
Number one and this is not exactly a baby topic but I hope you guys will
forgive me. My eight year old already has pit odor. What is up with that?
I mean really I thought I would have at least four more years before I had
to worry about my kids stinking. I’m just floored. He comes up to me one
day and says hey mom smell this and he sticks his armpit in my face and I’m
like ok, sure enough it stinks.
Sometimes I actually have to
remind him to go and bathe and scrub with soap and water and I’m just not
ready for him to wear deodorant, even the non toxic kind. I’m just not sure
about this if I need to get him to start wearing deodorant. I can’t believe
I might be one of those parents that like has a stinky kid and hasn’t
noticed that’s pretty embarrassing. I have had a preteen near me
periodically that it’s like their parents don’t realize that they are
growing up and they start to smell a little bit funky and you don’t know
what to do because you don’t want this kid to stink but you don’t’ want to
overstep your boundaries either so it’s kind of a weird situation.
But anyway, who knew that an
eight year old is already having body odor. They are just growing up to
fast. My nine month old the genius has begun to say ought oh. Let’s see if
I can get her to say it. She’s making a liar out of me. I don’t believe
this; she is embarrassing me in front of the World Wide Web. Isn’t that
just like the way kids are? It’s like oh look they are doing this awesome
new thing and you know the parents–in-law is around, your best friend or
whoever and they are not going to do it. This was Carrie with Natural Baby
World (http://www.naturalbabyworld.com).
Have a great week. Bye.
