I kind of thought it was my imagination, feeling so unsteady on stairs! We have an old farmhouse with stairs that are steep even for the most stable of people, but now I'm a little scared to carry anything up or down them because I'm...

I know it's early, but it's hard not to want to figure everything out! It seems like just decorating a nursery is simpler because you know what to buy and be done with it. I'm open to the fact that co-sleeping might not work for us,...
