Sod's Law of Parenting.

  1. If you forget a set of spare clothes child will mess its pants or spill huge amounts of food/drink down its self.
  2. If you count your nappies on 'normal' use and delay buying more, child will poo six times in one day.
  3. If you have an early morning start and long day ahead, even if child has slept through for weeks, it will wake five times that night.
  4. If you are in a quiet waiting room or the like child will break wind very loudly.
  5. If you are running late and have lots to do child will not sit quietly and watch Cbeebies.

If you have more please feel free to add them below....

  1. Ha! If you run out of calpol, kids will get a temp.
    If you wear black, you'll get smeared in yoghurt instantly.
    If you wear white, they'll get chocolate on you.
    If you get an emergency doc app for poorly child, by the time you get there, they'll be fine.

    Oh this is a good one!!! X

  2. If you need to be somewhere on time, child will throw up down itself.

    If you need to do a 'quick nappy change' child will wait til nappy is removed then pee, thus increasing washing load by half.

  3. If there is dog poo anywhere in the vicinity they will always veer towards it, even if they are starting out at the opposite side of the road, field etc to where it lies.

  4. Hahha oh yes.... Ruby broke wind extremely loudly during some prayers at her cousin's christening! She was sitting on my lap and it was so so loud I swear people thought it was me. I couldn't stop laughing.

  5. If you are on your way out of the door in work clothes and don't approach the breakfast table with caution, you will get yogurt on your black, dry clean only trousers.

  7. If child hasn't done a poo all day, they WILL wait until the minute the nappy is off and they are rolling around naked on the floor to let the whole day's food come out. On the carpet.

  9. If you wake up with a banging headche (self inflicted or otherwise), child WILL insist on playing with every noisy musical toy they own. Even though they haven't touched them at all in the previous week.

  10. Your child will have the same deepest utmost wish for the ONLY gift that they would like to receive for christmas, for months and months right up until the week before the big day and the very same day that you have just purchased the said gift , then they will change their mind and have the same deepest desire for something completely different.

  11. Your child will ask why you have a dynamite stick in your handbag (ie tampax) as you are passing through security.
    Your child will tell you that your legs need waxing in the loudest voice with as many people within earshot as possible.
    There are lots more!
    Great blog idea!

    Just as you are walking into an important meeting at school or into the GPs office etc, most likely running late, you see her face go red with poo strain. Another few steps and you are surrounded by vile aroma.
