As a parent, you become pretty numb to things like vomit and boogers and even poop — but it's a completely different story when it's a poop explosion, or "poopsplosion," if you will. There are approximately a million other things a parent would rather do than change a poopsplosion, and we know, because we've been there. If you've also been there, you'll recognize these 19 stages of changing one of those parental nightmares all too well.
