We slept with Jeffrey for the exact same reason until almost 9-10 mos., and he's now figured out that if he screams and fusses enough, one of us will get him and rock with him until he falls asleep. UGH! On the other hand, now that I know the possibilities of his condition, a part of me is okay with it until he's had his surgery, but I have zero no kid time.<br />Like you said, both my girls (and David for that matter) are extremely independent. Bathroom, a phone call, nothing is done without Jeffrey. 2 months ago when he figured out how to turn door knobs - yep, the end of my alone time.~Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10490299525799470284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5606319002100613302.post-55791201051846143422010-03-20T23:56:27.417-05:002010-03-20T23:56:27.417-05:00That is VERY helpful Becki!

He still grew up to be a wonderful, independent, "manly man" who fought in Iraq and came home to marry a wonderful girl. Though he has yet to give me a grandchild I think he turned out alright. Yes, people...mostly relatives...had a few things to say about my parenting skills but "Fairness isn't about giving every child the same, it's about giving every child what he needs" Truman will be amazing..just wait and see ;0)beckihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17010612612258190260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5606319002100613302.post-9196806502197977762010-03-18T10:37:14.764-05:002010-03-18T10:37:14.764-05:00They all go through these phases, and it ISN'T...They all go through these phases, and it ISN'T your "fault". Jimmy's 3, and I hear, "Oh Mommy! I NEEEEEEED YOOOOOU!!!" about 50 times a day. I rocked and nursed him to sleep for the first 18 months, despite all the dire warnings, because that was what he needed and what worked. Now, he sleeps like a champ and plays just fine on his own. They just go through times when they...want...MOMMY. No one else will do. I just try to store up the memory for when J is a teenager and wants nothing to do with me. ;)Genevahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13224708196375509533noreply@blogger.com
