Going with what you think is best.

starjax by starjax Standing(October 2008) (rank 500+)

Hey Everyone,

These days I find that there is alot of that you get told about your raising your babies and it is hard to know what to do.  Being a first time mum is a hard thing to do because you dont know what you are doing or

what you are suppose to do.  So you go to Mothers group to help you learn things and read all the things they give you that are suppose to help get by and then you also have your mum telling you things aswell.  So sometimes it all just gets a bit too much and you never know wether you are doing the right thing or not.  Well I have found that listening to all these things are good but it is always good to go with what you think is best for your child not what other people or reading material are saying.  Also in my short experience of being a mum I have found that usually your mums advice seems to be the best.  I know that times have changed and all that but we all survived being brought up this way and we seem to be doing fine.  So in bringing up my child I have done alot things that my mum has said instead of what the text books say and I have a very happy and healthy son.  So the best things you can do as a mum is go what you want for your child not what they say you are supposed to do.

Hi there,

The BEST and biggest part of parenting is learning to trust your instincts, once you have that sorted you are well on your way . .
