What I learned from my baby
What I learned from my baby.
- She is really sensitive emotionally but physically as tough as me (or maybe
tougher.) When she falls down she cries because she is so hurt that her mother
let her fall not because the fall itself hurt.
- She can be patient but if she’s tired all patience is gone.
- She doesn’t understand why I leave her and disappear throughout the day (when I
have to go to the bathroom). This makes her feel abandoned and so she cries
terribly so I’ll change my mind and come back.
- She doesn’t understand why I can’t hold her while driving.
- I can do a lot of things with only one hand.
- In a pinch I can use the restroom while holding her.
- I’m not as embarrassed by things like her spilling water in my lap so it looks
like I wet my pants.
- She would rather nap in my arms. That way she doesn’t have to fully wake up to
nurse.
- She doesn’t need a crib. She would rather sleep with me. She feels warm and
safe by my side knowing that I’m there to protect and feed her when she needs
me.
- If anything is wrong with either her or me or if the day is just being
stressful nursing helps. Nursing is the answer for everything.
