How people get through the day being so upset by little things is beyond me. A sink can be cleaned and disinfected. It is not ruined forever and neither is the baby.

So the big question is...Do you wash your hands after using the washroom? Or is that also some kind of odd formality To you in life?

Well, like you respondent, I wash 15 times beginning right over left, 4 times left over right, turn the water on and off four times, dry once, and flush the toilet after every sneeze. Then the light switch process begins.

I neither urinate or defecate, but enjoy the formality of proper hygiene

I'm with you on this. Food prep is only for food prep. no easy stuff including chemicals etc. it drives me nuts when people don't get this.

Seriously. If you would be embarrassed to tell your dinner guests that you do this where you prepped your food, you shouldn’t do it. And if you wouldn’t tell them, you’re a complete a-hole. They definitely should know.

It was a one off, I’m sure. Do you disclose every pet or child accident? I’m quite sure they cleaned properly afterwards, or OP has by now. Be realistic. And NEVER eat out, nearly all commercial kitchens deal with rats at some point, and they don’t just stick to floors.

I’d rather deal with rats than poopy diapers in a food prep area, myself.

They mean rat poop in restaurant food prep area, dearheart. Most places will bleach daily, but who knows what happens at night.

I would replace the sink (although this would never happen to me). That is disgusting.

That’s digging in, in a terribly disgusting way. You all are gross.

This is an example of a reason why I reallllly miss a waste sink in the basement laundry room.

I don’t rinse off the poop from my potty training toddler in the kitchen (yuck), or in the bathroom sink (too small)... I do it in the bathtub (sorry to be graphic but after removing large buts and putting in trash, of course)

Fast Food Nation contains the following claim:

“A series of tests conducted by Charles Gerba, a microbiologist at the University of Arizona, discovered far more fecal bacteria in the average American kitchen sink than on the average American toilet seat. According to Gerba, ‘You’d be better off eating a carrot stick that fell in your toilet than one that fell in your sink.”

(The cause is, according to the author, poop on meat that gets washed down sink). I’ve assumed anything that falls into a kitchen sink is inedible since I read that. It’s gross, but I don’t really see other alternatives as being less gross. I’m pretty sure there isn’t poop in my bathroom sink, for example.

Has your ability to reason been affected by fecal manner? Yes I wash my hands after using the washroom and yes I would clean my sink well after a poop accident. But it’s hardly the apocalyptic event people are seeing.

So people don’t clean their kitchen sinks properly anyway, and now we’re adding actual poop there.

Aside from that, the concern isn’t necessarily the sink directly, but aeroloizing the poop when you clean it to all your food prep areas.

My advice to OP is to try cognitive behavioral therapy here. You should slightly taste some poop (don't swallow!). This should cure you of your fear of poop in the sink.
