I feel so guilty...... I've been putting
brianne down in her swing alot when she
falls asleep so I can get some house
cleaning done but I feel so guilty about
it! I feel like I should be holding
her.... lol I know how
stupid this sounds but sincei've been home
from the hospital everything makes me cry
and everything I do makes me ask myself if
I am a good mom..... *sigh* motherhood is
so hard!

Oh my god, finn has just started liking
his swing and I am *so* happy! I can
finally get stuff done, like dishes and
laundry. Before the swing he needed to
be held all the time and was so cranky,
now i'm feeling so much more relaxed and
less stressed.
You can't be expected to hold her
constantly, don't feel bad!
Edit to add: he doesn't last long, usually
just long enough for me to fold a load of
laundry or wash a few bottles. It's
heaven when he falls asleep in it though,
he'll sleep for at least an hour!

Trust me, it's better to put them down
when they are sleeping. If you hold her
constantly it will be hard to get her to
sleep in her crib later on!

I adored .Nana's swing and .Papasan. Oh

them?!?!?

does not have "arm-itis"! Hahahhaa, which
is a disease of the needy!! Hahahha!!

But really, if your baba is content with
just sitting there....Don't feel
blad...Feel glad

I like it when they get to the age when
they can just sit on the floor with toys
and play! That's always good.

Thanks for the encouragement ladies she has the fisher
price nature's touch cradle swing and she
would sit in there all day if I didn't
make her get out to change her diaper and
feed her! I am blessed with a
non-fussy baby. She is an angel. I just
have this feeling that in a few weeks she
will change her mind about being good and
get colic or something like that....
