although i have always described my self as 'up tight' and i'm a complete worry wart, seriously i worry about everything
since maddi, i've become such a laid back mummy! since my pregnancy i have just taken things as they come, like with my birth, i did want it to be natural and no epi, but things changed and she was c-section, i wanted to breast feed, i tried for 3 days, but i actually had no milk, due to a hormonal condition, so off we went to bottle. i've found fab support from bnb, here is my parenting guide as you have all reaffirmed what i think - follow you're baby! maddi seems to be leading my on this amazing journey, i can't believe it still!
with regards to other things i've done by the book - no co-sleeping, only because maddi has been a very easy baby, has always slept well! me and james would actually like her to be in bed with us
but she likes sleeping on her own! i have always said, we are really lucky how well maddi sleeps, if she wasn't such a sleepy baby, i think this may have changed, i can completely understand - co sleep or no sleep x x
with regards to weaning at 6months - i wanted to get there, but i found it was better to go by maddi - i did and she decided 6 months (she has been obviously reading the current guidelines lol!) no 2 might decide its time at 4 months
with regards to sleeping in her own room - we did 6months, as because thats when we thought she needed her own room as we were waking our sleeping beauty
so for us, its go with the flow, for me, try to be more laid back, yeah right! i worry too much
