so i am sure that i am in the same position of every parent that has come before me. there is so much information out there about how to raise a baby. i sometimes feel like how am i going to know the right answers. there are mixed opinions about all of the important issues...cry it out vs. parental soothing, what formula is best, how often to hold the baby, working mom vs. stay at home mom. i wonder how are we going to make the best choices, that won't negatively affect her, in the long run.
i think part of this new mom journey is about becoming confident in my abilities and intuitions. it is hard when she is not able to tell us what she needs. i know with time i will become more assertive in motherly convictions. i felt like i read all the books before, but as with labor, you can never be fully prepared for what is to come.
little miss G has given up sleeping day or night right now & is calling me from her playpen to hopefully get her back to sleep. wish me luck!!
