TIFU By thinking my son ran hit a night.

The realization of this tifu happened yesterday but has actually been occurring for the past 3 weeks of my 6 week old sons life.

He is our first child so we are still getting the hang of raising a small human. We are learning things though. One thing I noticed was he sweats a lot when he sleeps at night. So I being a problem solving new dad immediately thought we’ll let’s turn down the heat a little bit and put him into lighter outfits. None of my ideas really seemed to work.

So yesterday morning I was once again putting an outfit on a damp baby thinking something like “wow this little guy runs hot.” After that it was time for a diaper change. I remember thinking “It’s amazing how much a baby can sweat and have such a a light diaper in the morning.”

So, I’ve always put diapers on but I never really learned how to do it. After some interneting I realized that I’ve been putting diapers on wrong since we bumped up a size. The front was riding a little low.

Then it all came together dear reader. I realized that no, my son does not sweat a lot at night, he is just covered in his own pee because the angle I’ve had the diaper at is wrong and it leaked.

The reason I’m posting today is because I tested the hypothesis last night and awoke to a dry baby and heavy diaper this morning.

TL;DR Have been putting diapers on my son incorrectly since we upped the size and thought he was covered in sweat while sleeping when it was really just his own bodily fluids.
