Now that J is 3 months old, we thought we'd do a little calculation.
I walk into the living room with J in my arms.
Me: That's another change done. Our little trooper is happy again. Funny how these things seem so completely natural now.
W: We wouldn't have said that 3 months ago.
Me: Back then I didn't believe you when you said it could be 10 changes a day.
W: And now?
Me: I think we can both recount a few 10-plus days.
W: So that's near on 1,000 nappies.
Me: Really?
W: Think of it this way. We've been through more than two packs of 150 biodegradable nappy sacks...
Me: ...and often you can get more than 3 nappies in one bag.
W: True. So that's 900 at least and we're not even counting the ones we've changed when we've been out and about. Let's call it a thousand.
Me: How about 1,001?
W: Why? Because it sounds more like an acheivement?
Me: Yep! That, and it will work better as a title for a blog post.
