As a parent of 3 close in age. This is pretty funny.

You were visiting and helping out. I can't see this getting blown out of proportion.

Next I went over there I'd bring an extra shirt of my own. Something like a cheap white T and write my name on it with a sharpie.

Hope so! I just know tempers grow in proportion to the sleep dep, figured it was better to get while the getting was good, you know?

Definitely going to monologue a lot more if it's just me and the kids though.

Definitely better to just end an awkward situation and converse about it once they've talked.

No, that was a good move. She was so sleep deprived that if you opened your mouth, she might try to breastfeed you also

That's a story about an amazing friend. In 5 years you'll laugh about it. Until then, ignore it and go back over when invited... maybe put a little more distance between yourself and the wife until it's clear both she & husband are comfortable again. You sound like a godsend of a friend.

I’m the father of 2 who are now in their 20s.

Take my word for it. When you’re feeding a newborn, there’s always some chance you’ll be wearing the kid’s meal. At least until their stomach is big enough for them to sleep the night.

I wouldn’t be too harsh on your friend. It’s easy to forget to warn friends about your kid’s projectile vomiting when you’re sleep deprived.

Oh no, he laughed his ass off. He knew EXACTLY what he was doing. That's also his sense of humor. I'm not all THAT mad about it

Not where I assumed it was going. I was expecting someone to put the vomit shirt on. Lol

You did great. Nobody thinks of sexual attraction and jealousy at that point in their life. Its all about surviving another day.

Your friend should not let you be alone with the kids, also not get puke on you btw.

I mean to be fair I was fine with the screaming. Well, I wasn't fine but it wasn't at crisis level yet. Could've easily waited till he was done in the shower.

I agree with the puke thing, and there will be revenge

Pumps are high heels, no? Why was she wearing these?

Breast pumps are pumps that suck breast milk out for storage and later feeding in a bottle.

The fact that they look like something out of blade runner and make an unsettling gurgling noise is neither here nor there!
