Things I've Learned So Far as A Mom

As it relates to food:
~"biter biscuits" melt when you give them to a baby who's teething but has yet to get any teeth. That "residue" they leave turns into cement.
~Zwieback Toast isn't much better!
~Baby teeth hurt more then puppy teeth when teething babies get ahold and take a bite out of your hand.
As it relates to Sleep:
~Pack n Plays or Port-a-crib do not replace a crib! I don't care what anyone says!! Jr slept almost all night back in TX in his full sized crib. He wakes up by 1 EVERY morning and ends up in bed with me. Nothing I've done works!!! I want my sleep'n through the night (almost) baby back!! This is turning him into a monster during the day because he REFUSES to nap and is just getting overly tired. Cranky baby=cranky mom.
~attempts to nurse Jr to sleep only work while he's latched on or laying ON me. I need him to take a nap without laying on mommy! (laying on Grandma would be acceptable to me!)
As it relates to Play:
~Anything and Everything is considered a toy. NOTHING is safe.
