I'm wondering...what grosses you out?
I'm sure we've all learned that not much DOES gross us out anymore - now that we're moms. I used to think that dirty diapers would gross me out, but nope - just a normal thing now.
HOWEVER, I get queasy when DD spits out chewed up food b/c she has decided she does not like it. Of course, I have to wipe it up and gather all the nasty squishy bits from her face/neck/shirt too, so that just makes it worse. Don't get me wrong, I do it - but it really grosses me out. I'm usually eating right along side of her too, so that makes it worse for me.
I'm sure there is something that grosses other moms out too - right?

Re: I'm wondering...what grosses you out?
Yeah, I'm over the normal changing dirty diapers, throw up, etc.
I've had DS spit in my mouth, peed on, pooped on, etc. None of them gross me out as much as I thought they would.
What really grosses me out is when DS poops in the bath and I have to clean the bath out and disinfect all his toys. EEEW, I'm hoping he doesn't do that again!!!

hmmm... i still get grossed out by cleaning up throw up. I don't know that I'll ever get over that.
I get grossed out when I sit down on the toilet and the seat is wet because Jake didn't put the seat up. Just a gross feeling.
And, I don't think I'll ever not be grossed out by a milk sippy cup that has been sitting for who know how long and I choose to clean it instead of just throwing it out.
Poop under the fingernail is kind of gross too. worse when it's my son and I don't know how long it's been there!

- When kids/babies mouth/gum their food until it's just a disgusting slobbery mess of grossness. Graham crackers and such are the worst, but chunks of food too.
- Whole food in the diaper
- NBR, but other people's hair after it's no longer attached to their head. You'd think I'd have either not become a hairdresser, or gotten over it eventually. Maybe that's why I was a colourist....
haha, something to look forward to. that made me lol!
Rosie - well, I was going the kid-related route, but I'm definitely enjoying hearing about other gross things...
Poop in the tub kills me. I can handle poop in any other form...diapers, dog poo, litter boxes, whatever. But poop in the tub is too much. It floats around and you have to catch it ::blech::
Fish. I hate when you look at the fish tanks in a pet store. Once I saw a dead fish being devoured by its tank mates and I haven't been able to look in a fish tank without fear since. And fish in the ocean. Once I saw fish in the waves in Galveston I had to head back the beach.
Slobbered on food definitely grosses me out. I'm NOT looking forward to that. Poop, pee - eh, I've got dogs.
Hmm throwup, Hmm .... that one might get me, too. In general, though, I'm not easily grossed out.
I get completely grossed out by the sound of my dog licking his butt. We have to get his anal glands cleaned out every six weeks or so and this is the telltale sign. EWWWWW!
I also hate "the P word" (as in p-cat w/ out the "cat" on the end).
Ohgawd. I hate waking up to that sound. DH will actually tell the dog to stop, it is so disgusting. "Bandit NO" and he knows exactly what we mean ::shudder::
i can't handle that sound either. Cooper knows what I'm talking about if I yell his name when he's doing it too. He also has these big ears (beagle) that he gnaws on - and it makes the same sound. it's terrible.
