re: ATTACHMENT PARENTING !!!

Is it just me or does the infantino baby sling carry your babys awkwardly?

i do that stuff!

I know, i definatly want anthony to grow up in a love family.

I feel so determined to raise him to be an awesome person.

the doctor put Emmie on my chest right after delivery. It was amazing! She didnt cry and she was just staring up at me with her big eyes. Omg I loved it, I was just bawling and kissing her head and saying how beautiful she is! God I wish I taped it

Quoting holly.:“ Can there bea semi attachment style parenting ? i TRY not to baby wear (well i dont have a good carrier ... [snip!] ... i dont have a good carrier and my arms/back wont allow. HA!) acutally..what am i saying.. that kids always in my arms ”

i don't think that you have to do every thing that is listed just to be an AP mama..just the basic principles...
if baby wearing isn't for your then ..oh well ..that's ok too

Quoting holly.:“ i do that stuff!”

Thats cause ur an AP like me mama

I have just started really getting into it...((well the whole sling thing and co-sleeping)) and my daughter is 2 mo. tonight at 10:18!! hehe..

i loved baby wearing, but he just got too heavy for my....i still do it some times, like if im just walking tot he deli and his pram is in the car, ill put him in that

yeah ..the older generation seems really big on the CIO deal ..it breaks my heart to think of all the babies that went thru that ..including us possibly just b/c some idiot thought that a baby had the ability to manipulate it's mother or be spoiled b/c it's cries were answered..I know that the moms that did it probably meant well but, it's still sad to me !

I'm Tabitha. I'm 23. I consider my styleto be semi-attached parenting.
My son will be one on the 22nd, & he was probably not set down by himself for the first 3 to 4 months of his life. We have done the sling/backpack/carry thing all the time. He does love to be in his stroller when we are outside & taking nature strolls. Other than that, I believe it is important that I be with him all the time to nurture & care for him. He needs to feel loved at all times. I do not believe in CIO. It breaks my heart, & to think that he may for one moment feel neglected kills me on the inside.

Im in bed with my babygirl right now bfing   hahah

yeah ..I didn't get to do the whole bonding right after birth thing until 2 hours later b/c of my darned c-section but we made up for lost time

my son is horroble at crying to get attention....or he coughs lol its soo cute, but i dont pick him up i just sit down and tlak and play with him
