Does anyone else's inner OCD come out when feeding your DC?

Seriously, feeding his kid increases my blood pressure! Chat Icon
He's a great eater, but feeding him is SO MESSY! I know this comes with the territory, but I wipe him down after every spoonfull! Am I the only lunatic?! Chat Icon

Chat Icon I have a feeling I will be the same way when I start feeding DD.

For now I wipe her mouth as she is drinking her bottle because the formula gets all over her chin and drips and it drives me nuts!

Re: Does anyone else's inner OCD come out when feeding your DC?

My DH thinks I am a mental patient with the way I hang over them and clean them. It's not getting any better either....I still do it. They are 5 and 3-year old twins and I hover with the wipes. I wonder if I will ever take that tuib of wipes off my counter. Chat Icon

This was comoletely me a week ago, until it dawned on me that if i just let it get all over the place, and nit clean up until after he is done, there's less of a chance my bp goes up. But it still irks me...a lot. Just thinkin... It really is going to get a lot worse, so keep smiling :) i say this to myself. Doesnt always work, but it does help me off the ledge.

I keep reminding myself that kid#2... I'll be a lot looser with that one...calmer... I hope.

You should've seen me smearing carrot all over DD's face the other day!!!! I think I would've driven you up a wall! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

She wanted to eat and lick it and stuff but seems to really hate the spoon I use (I still use a very gummy soft one since she's only 5 months) so I started to smear it on her top lip and let her lick it and use her hand to shove it in her mouth. Then I'd also put some on my pinky and stick it in her mouth and she'd chew on my finger and suck on the carrot. It was so much fun and SUCH a mess!!!

I do wipe her if it goes down her neck, but she's gotten way better at avoiding that.

I'm really looking forward to this week's sweet potato food fight! Chat Icon
