New mom Jillian Michaels opens up about diaper disasters and spit-up overload

By Scott Huver and Jessica Wedemeyer

Parenthood is messy -- just ask Jillian Michaels. The "Biggest Loser" trainer learned firsthand since becoming a mother of two in May 2012 that smelly diapers and spit up aren't just horror stories -- they're daily occurrences.

"I did not anticipate how much a child under 1 throws up -- oh my God, every day," Jillian told Wonderwall while promoting "The Biggest Loser" at the 2013 Television Critics Association winter 2013 press tour in Los Angeles. "Every day, I just look at [my son], and I'm like, 'Phoenix, honey, when do you stop puking?' I'm told that it's after a year, but there is not a day where I do not get projectile vomited on -- not a day!"

Jillian's partner, Heidi Rhoades, gave birth to their son on May 3, 2012; that same week, the couple brought their daughter, Lukensia, home from Haiti after a two-year struggle to adopt. Now the couple is reveling in the dirtier parts of parenthood -- and projectile vomiting isn't the worst of it!

The fitness expert shared her most embarrassing parenting horror story, which began when she attempted to change Phoenix's dirty diaper while visiting a physical therapist's office with Heidi -- and ended with the couple seeking a new physical therapist!

"I didn't want to take [Phoenix's] shoes off, so I was like, all right, I'll pull his pants down and take the diaper off that way and kind of weave it through his legs," Jillian recounted. "But it was a poop diaper, so when I pulled the diaper through the legs, crap went flying -- all over the floor, all over the wall."

"I kind of died that day," she adds. "I kind of died inside. [The physical therapist] was like, 'It's OK, I have two kids.' But we knew it wasn't OK, and we've never gone back."

So Jillian is eagerly anticipating the day when dirty diapers are a thing of the past and she can share some of her less cringe-worthy hobbies with her children.

"I have this vision of doing [parkour] with my son one day," she says. "It's like, we're going to do Brazilian Jujitsu together; we're going to do parkour together. Then I know he's going to be like, 'Mom, I want to take ballet!' So we'll see."
