Blog Hopping: Perfect Babies

Don’t you just hate the parents of those perfect babies? You know, the ones that sleep through the night, eat without making a mess, never have bad days, smile all the time and quietly play on their own with their little toys.

Don’t you just hate the people that say to you: “Your baby is waking up for feeds at night? Oh, that’s awful, you poor thing - at this age he must sleep through!”

And how about the people who say: “By this age he must be able to sit upright and feed himself with a spoon, my children did!”

Well, news flash – my baby has no idea about this “MUST” word, he has no clue about all the things that according to some people he “must” do. And you know what? I think that I will erase that word from my vocabulary as well. My baby has the right to develop in his own pace and this word just gets in the way!
