A mother to a baby on a potent dose of antibiotics should certainly make sure she brings an extra change of clothes for said baby in the event of a diarrhea explosion. Any mother who has had a child on an antibiotic knows that the blow out will happen, usually several times during the day. And a good mother would be prepared with extra clothing and certainly she would make sure there were diapers in the diaper bag. You know, in case she and her kids were at a store and the cashier walked up to her holding paper towels and saying, "Um, mam, I'm not sure what that is, but here" as she stuffs the paper towels between your arm and the baby you are carrying. And you look at your arm to discover bright yellow, you know what, from your wrist to your elbow and from your child's bottom to his neck. As a good mom, you'd be prepared for this mishap and would not be forced to put your baby in his oldest brother's vintage Davy Crockett pants without a diaper because A. you have no diapers and B. the pants were the only clothing item in your car.
On a side note, a mom this unprepared should not venture out to a costume store in Raleigh to fulfill a promise to her oldest about finding him a policeman costume. Because when your middle child turns down a wrong aisle and is suddenly face to face with an assortment of scary masks, he will climb you like a squirrel running up an oak tree. And commence to hanging on to you like a tree frog. A tree frog with an excellent choke hold. This may make maneuvering out of the store, covered in diarrhea and carrying your dirty baby, a little more difficult.
