Reassuringly full of a mother's confessions of letting her baby fall down the stairs, play with knives etc. <BR/><BR/>All the best to you and yoursTrevorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13683057947366209525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10294772.post-11060876594351164572007-05-11T12:45:00.000+10:002007-05-11T12:45:00.000+10:00And you will remember this forever and when Tricky...And you will remember this forever and when Tricky is in his 20s, you'll probably say, "Remember that time Mummy..." And he'll say, "What?"<BR/><BR/>My son rolled off his changing table at 3 months, straight into the diaper pail thingie. Nice. I had my hand on his belly and then stretched to get something and even though my arm was still stretched out [vaguely] towards the baby, that hand was not guarding that wee baby at all. <BR/><BR/>Oh yeah, and then there was the time my year old baby ate Deadly Nightshade and had to have her stomach pumped...uh huh, the list goes on.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10294772.post-79111462313712762802007-05-11T03:05:00.000+10:002007-05-11T03:05:00.000+10:00oh. oh. poor little. poor you.i had the same kind ...oh. oh. poor little. poor you.<BR/><BR/>i had the same kind of "first" yesterday, though it was after a bath, and i slipped on some water while carrying O, and banged his head on the doorframe. he cried, and went to his dad, and didn't want to come back to me...and inside i just died, i was so sad.<BR/><BR/>damn taps and spills and world just out there waiting to cause harm...bad enough to know that there will come pain in their lives eventually, but when we cause it...double ouch.Bonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14403701620708365171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10294772.post-38764975839994598362007-05-10T07:20:00.000+10:002007-05-10T07:20:00.000+10:00Wow, it must have been one of these global bad bat...Wow, it must have been one of these global bad bath time moments... At the same time somewhere else on the planet, when I had turned my back on the bath bucket to close the curtains Lola fell head first into the water. It doesn't make a sound. The baby doesn't make a sound. Things can go wrong in just a tiny little instant. Lola was ok, just coughing up some water. I was shaky long afterwards.

His poor, little bum was sore & I was forcing him to sit on it. Gah!

A friend of mine once fell down the stairs while holding her rather new baby. She called the paramedics and they said the baby was 100% fine... but she was so stressed out they took <B>her</B> to the hospital. And she now has 8 kids and is an amazing and very low-key mom.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
