Marie may be right...seventh, eighth, etc...<br /><br />Wisdom and, perhaps, maternial intuition, may come with age and experience. <br /><br />At least for me, it's been a process of development, and some aspects are universal to all children, while some are specific to my own.<br /><br />Kelly, BTDT, more than once, and yeah, OUCH. :oPζωὴν περισσὸνhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12082501906879213132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2566055197730422533.post-74953611663538258742009-04-22T23:06:00.000-05:002009-04-22T23:06:00.000-05:00Kelly, yikes!!!

But let some non-related person make some sort of comment about one of my kids (such as describing a reserved child as "pill" for not always wanting to smile on cue for a picture, sit next to non-related person in church, etc.), and ROAR... Does that count for something? :PReb.

Lovely.<br /><br />But like Rebekah, I'm clueless when preggo and only have bad dreams about my fetuses. I know from experience that when there's danger, I run to intervene, but this isn't necessarily a good thing if I'm pregnant or have one in arms.<br /><br />Anyone know how to make a 5-mo-old stop crawling? The other day she was laying on her tummy in the crib and got both hands on top of the rail. Good grief! Choking hazards, begone!Untamed Shrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07273110800292712897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2566055197730422533.post-68090795250220188822009-04-22T14:44:00.000-05:002009-04-22T14:44:00.000-05:00Funny, I've become less a-pitter-pat the more chil...Funny, I've become less a-pitter-pat the more children I've had.<br /><br />Though I'm still plenty angry. I trust this emotion will handle, if not the truck, then its driver. <br /><br />If only I were 7 feet tall. <br /><br />PS -- I really hate random, I'm-not-nursing-right-now let down.

But I do about the second, so there's still hope for you! Maybe your fifth, or sixth, or seventh (or eighth, or ninth, or tenth!=)<br /><br />I think I'd cower, too, if there was danger... but I believe that's put within us because we *might* be pregnant at any given time! Hey, we might be running away from the big ones, but we can still nurture the possible one within=)Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08479968112307646145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2566055197730422533.post-58592285139026310442009-04-22T13:04:00.000-05:002009-04-22T13:04:00.000-05:00Well thanks, you made us part time nurturers feel ...Well thanks, you made us part time nurturers feel WAY better about ourselves!
