Mother (Father) knows best!

ljl267 by ljl267 Walking(October 2006) (rank 500+)

Its true what they say - Mother knows best, and dad's do too.

When it comes to your baby, you know them the best - go with your gut- if something is wrong don't ever feel as if you are over reacting. Its always better to ask than to

not ask.

We are only human and we don't know everything, don't feel bad if you have to ask for advice, we are all learning. Ask and ask again if thats what it takes, but follow your instincts, because no one knows a child like a parent.

gut instincts
I've always gone with my guy instincts and if i don't know something, i always ask my mum or brother or SIL  for advice as my mum has had 3 of us, and my bro and SIL have had 3 children too.

Everyone tells me oh what a happy contented baby yes she is

but when they tell me oh shes ok she just having a whine theres nothing wrong with her leave her alone

I want to cloober them she doesn't whine or cry for no reason

She doesn't even do it for attention (She gurgles and pokes tongue and squeels but not cries)

If she cries it is purely because she is still hungry or she has a pain and i usualy know just how to fix it

I also know the difference between her cries so yeah totaly agree noone know your baby like you!

I agree

It is vital to have confidence in your own judgement regardless of the support or opposition you receive. 

It is also ok to change your mind based on what someone else says if you feel it is better than your initial reaction/thought process.

Be Bold!
