Is there anyone NOT dealing with sleep and/or feeding issues? Ah, the "joys" of the early months.....
OTOH, Sprout laughs in his sleep (when he does sleep) and it's adorable.
Took him to the Great American Pie Festival in Celebration, FL yesterday. It was hot -- high 80s. It makes me wonder how we're going to manage taking him out at all this summer. Even the light jersey sling I made seems too heavy, and the sunscreen for babies is sticky, nasty stuff that does not want to come off, even after multiple days and a bath.

We donate it to the local food bank*. DH has learned not even to jokingly put them out on the kitchen counter, because I end up going off on a tangent about aggressive marketing, etc. He probably stands behind me and mouths the words while i rant, he's heard it so many times. 
Did you read the little book they send along? It plays along with "breast is best", but somehow stresses how hard it is, and how a "strong mom" will always have a backup plan. I read it while pooping one day, which felt suiting. I have a backup plan for that book! heh.

ds was difficult about that, and thats how i came to find attachment parenting and we learned to go with it. now that i know its okay to enjoy their cuddles all day, i do. this is my last baby & i want to savor every moment. she does sleep better than ds did, but again, i think its only partly temperment and the rest because we are cosleeping from the start.
