Just wondering what kinds of backgrounds everyone here comes from.
The only "AP" thing I think my parents (or shall I say my mom) did was breastfeeding.
Sleeping: I slept in a crib, not sure if I I was made to CIO or not, but probably not given that I was continually sick for the first 1.5 years.
Carrying: don't remember, should ask my mom.
School: went to Public School-- though the school I went to in 2nd half of Kindergarten up through 2nd grade was that alternative school in the district and was pretty "montessori-esque." Does that count?
Discipline: Not terribly gentle, but not too harsh either. I do remember being spanked when I was little. That stopped by the time I was 8. I do remember a lot of yelling, but that also stopped (for the most part) as I got older.
Vaccinations: yep, there were fewer back then. (They may have been delayed though, given my aforementioned illness?)
Diapers: Hey, that's a good question. I think my mom used cloth, but I don't know.
