Great thread Amber

I haven't read too many parenting books - besides Pinky McKay books and they're great as she explains how to follow and trust your instincts
I feel that most of the time I have parented out of instinct and held my bub when she has cried etc.... I do what feels right at the time and I'm a happy parent for that.

I think it is easy to be led astray though by sooo many people ie our parents, society etc telling us that we might spoil our babies or they are manipulating us (WRONG!) etc and it just confuses us and we are constantly trying to ignore all those comments and sort out what we feel is right and what is wrong..... I think i'm mumbling..... I'm off to bed now..... BBL in the morning! When my words make sense!! haha
