Baby Time
I've been soaking up the baby knowledge this week. What to expect. What to buy. What (not) to worry about. What (to) worry about. And I'm realizing just how many moms I know. I'm joining a club! With about 9 months of initiation.
I like the club. It's full of good people. And I like hearing their stories. About the blessings of baby wipe warmers. The God-send that is colic pills, or "miracle blankets", pack and plays, belly bands, lactation specialists, and more and more. About the hell that is learning to nurse. About staying home with the baby or going back to work. About feeling the baby move for the first time. Everybody's got a story to share, folks with babies, folks without kids - I love them all.
Keep 'em coming. I must catalogue them all. Only 4 more months before I'll need to flip back through them and put them to use!
