Thanks, guys.
Well, went to the hosp after work. My ex and her husband were there also. After a bit of chit chat, my ex and her husband decided it was time to go. Pops got to hold the little guy for about half an hour and then Mom needed some work from the nurse so Dad, Pops and baby took a walk down to the nursery to see the other babies. While admiring all the other babies the little one let's one loose that would rate about an 8 on the scale.
Pops was holding the little guy and Dad remarked that was a great burp. Pops says, "Uhhhh, I don't think so, I think you will be doing a diaper change as soon as we get back to the room".
We get back to the room and rug rat starts to get antsy. I suggest to Dad he might want to check the diaper. Sure enough, a major load was to be found.
Pops takes great delight in watching Dad change a diaper for the first time. Dad does a pretty good job but has to walk back and forth from the cabinet to get the items he needs. He did not get everything he needed first, then begin the job, he just began the job, then went to get things as he needed them. When he would make a trip to the cabinet, he left the little guy exposed and he was getting cold and starting to complain about it.
Pops was standing by and observing so when Dad would turn to go to the cabinet, Pops would cover the little guy with a blanket to keep him warm. Dad asked Mom to document the movement and Mom asked if he urinated. Dad examines the diaper and responds, no. Dad wipes the little guy down then goes to get some goop. Pops once again covers the little guy and when Dad comes back with the goop and uncovers Rug Rat, lo and behold! His blanket is now yellow.
We all had a good laugh over it and Dad looks at Pops and said "I never even thought to cover him up while I was getting the stuff but it's a good thing we had an experienced helping hand. I can see the multiple benefits of keeping him covered and paying attention to experienced help."
