In embracing motherhood, Megan Fox has had to let go of her germaphobe ways. The mother of two has opened up about how having 22-month-old Noah and 6-month-old Bodhi to care for has truly changed her world -- and that new scent she's rocking.

"I was holding Bodhi, and Noah was running around. I was trying to manage both of them because my husband [Brian Austin Green] wasn't feeling well," the actress recently recalled to The Stir . "My sister was with me, and we were talking. We were having some sort of theological discussion and Bodhi peed through his diaper and onto me."

"I was so exhausted that I didn't even bother looking for a wipe to clean me up. I just checked his clothes to make sure they weren't wet and they weren't. I was soaking wet, but I just let it air-dry. That's how you know you have so many children that you just -- I was too tired to be bothered with cleaning up my clothes or even my hands. I was just like eh, f--k it."

Megan Fox continued, "That's sort of one of those moments when you realize how much your life has changed -- especially for me because, once upon a time, I was a germaphobe! The idea of that would have like sent me hiding under the covers. Now I just embrace it and wear it, and it is what it is."

I have so been there, and done that.

The thing is, when you're in your pre-parenthood years, the idea of having pee on you is as disgusting as it ought to be, but once you're in the trenches you realize baby pee is a different classification from other pee. Am I right?

I won't argue that it's not still a little gross, but somehow, in parent's exhausted mind, there becomes a distinction that it's not as bad. Hopefully it's not just me who thought that, because that's be a little embarrassing, but at the very least I know Megan Fox gets it.

Please, do tell

Time to confess: Have you worn baby pee too?
