"hawwwwww.... you don't breast feed your baby?"
"hawwwwwwwww..... you haven't covered up your child in this weather?"
"hawwwwwwwwwwwww..... you have covered up your child in this weather?"
hawww hawww hawww....
So easy for all these aunties and "women with experience" to constantly get on your case about everything you do wrong.
New parents anyhow go thru a bazillion moments of self doubt ... having a little human being in their charge is enough to drive anyone crazy...
You're not sure how much to fed him... how much to let him sleep... is he peeing too much too less.. I actually had a diary where i would write how many times he peed and pooped and how many hours he slept so I could share it with his doctor just to be sure it was all well within the "normal" limits!!
You don't know anything... everything is new and alien....
So you read and read... books, online... talk to friends and a few aunts you don't mind taking the advice of....
And still you will make mistakes....
The thing is so long as you don't physically hurt your little one... these small mistakes are ok. You can't possibly know everything and you can't possibly get it right everytime...
Something as simple as packing his baby bag for our outings... One day I forgot to put in an extra plastic bag for his dirty diaper... The next time I made sure to put it in but forgot the bibs!!!
Things happen... but the last thing you need is random people coming up to you and telling you what you are doing wrong...
So all you people who have kids give the new ones a break... I'm sure you were a haww parent yourself at some point... yes a "Haww Parent" that's my new term for new parents!!!
and all you people who don't have kids but think you'll are really over smart.... well to you all I can say is "one day you will be a parent and I can bet a million bucks you'll be a haww parent as well!!"
ha ha ha.... hawwwwww!!!!!
