She posted a photo of her vomit-splattered face and received a wave of supportive reactions from fellow parents.
One undeniable truth all new parents discover quickly is that kids can be utterly revolting. From spit-up to poop explosions, their little bodies create a minefield of messes. They don’t mean to be gross, but when you’re dealing with a tiny human who has no grasp of managing their bodily functions, chaos ensues.
Recently, a mom’s tweet about a baby barf episode went viral, resonating with countless other parents who could relate to her experience, sparking one of the most relatable threads on Twitter.
According to reports, a mom named Sarah Johnson from California, along with her partner Mike, shared a recent incident involving their baby boy, Liam. Johnson took to Twitter to recount a moment that many parents know all too well. Yes, her baby hurled all over her face. One moment you’re joyfully bouncing your little one, and the next, you’re in a disaster zone of baby vomit.
Before posting for the world to see, Johnson sent a text to Mike, detailing the messy situation.
Who hasn’t sent a message like this to their partner after an explosive diaper change or a barf incident? This. Is. Parenthood. Consequently, many Twitter users jumped in with their own tales of grossness, proving that if you’re wondering how a parent could stay composed enough to document a barf-to-face moment (or a poop-to-arm situation), you probably haven’t experienced parenthood yet.
Yup.
So incredibly gross.
Honestly, we all get it.
And it wasn’t just vomit and spit-up parents had to deal with. Only a parent could hold a literal armful of mess and still muster the strength to snap a picture. In fact, she likely took several to ensure she captured the perfect shot because at that moment, nothing matters anymore.
Everything feels like an uphill battle.
Yet we push through it all because, let’s be real, no matter how disgusting it gets—those little faces are just too adorable to stay mad at for long.
