mistakes

I just read this interesting article on CNN about 5 mistakes that parents make with their newborns.

Link to the article.


Some of it sounds like common sense but other things were a surprise. I think the average person would be elated if their newborn slept thru the night and perish the thought of having to wake them up every 2 hours (hello sleep deprivation!).

But if they need to eat every 2 hours during the day, it stands to reason that they would need to do the same at night.

Gosh, I have so much to learn....

this reminded me of a big pet peeve of mine. i can't stand it when people bring their babies places in a baby carriers and then set it on the floor in public places. it's like they trust everyone walking by not to drop something on the poor babies face or trip and fall on the baby. not to mention all the dust, floor chemicals and bad smells on the floors of public places especially restaurants. don't do this moms and dads!
