Ok, beyond the science of the matter; decomposing food and the resultant gases, which about exhausts my knowledge of the digestive system, why does poo smell? At my house, we call it the spinner...cuz it "spins around, spins around, spins around, and bam!" Explodes the food out to the necessary organs.
Anyway, back to poo. Why does it have to smell? I mean really. With how amazing our bodies are, how efficiently they work, we couldn't take the smell out of it? And why does it especially smell when you absolutely positively cannot get away from it? Like in a car, airplane, grocery cart, swimming pool, doctors office, or any other small enclosure?
And why does it have to be so yucky? Especially teething diapers? Is this so we know that the children are teething? As if the crankiness, drooling mouth, and not eating are not enough clues....
Sorry, I know this is rather disgusting, however after thousands and thousands of diapers I began to wonder about it. Especially after a horrendously awful diaper today. And we are supposed to be potty training. In theory we shouldn't have anymore horrendously awful diapers. Because we are NOT in diapers. At least today. Perhaps we will be back in them tomorrow. So, if you have any thoughts on why poo smells, I would love to hear what you think. This applies to grownups as well.
