Hey "examine their diets" PP, their poop is not supposed to be firm and ploppy. A soft log is squishable and turns to goo when smooshed in a diaper. This is according to my PEDIATRICIAN when I asked about my kid's poop consistency because I heard most kids had hard poops by toddlerhood. She ate, and still eats, more produce, beans, and whole grains and has pretty much a perfect diet for a kid. And that squishy hard to wipe poop turned into normal solid poops when she started pooping in a toilet and not a diaper (so 4 diaper wipes turned into one clean swipe of toilet paper).

Ask your doctor if you don't believe me, but don't spread misinformation that there's something wrong if a kid doesn't have "one wipe" diaper poops.

*Stepping off a very weird soapbox now, thank you.*

This is why people are saying that it’s cleaner if you catch the kid BEFORE they sit down. If the kid poops and sits down to play, you’re not going to get the one wipe diaper change. Changing the diaper is easier for many reasons outlined in PPs.

Try it.
