we did quite a bit differently...

apart from the obvious of having a HB we also were alot easier on ourselves in general and this came quite easily to do that. I guess alot of the steep learning curve was done with the first baby, so the second baby is a grand chance to just soak up the newborn goodness ('cause second time around it passes sooooo quickly!). so we did co-sleep this time. she lived in our Close Carrier for the first 8 weeks. i demand feed, feed to sleep and seriously dont fret about day sleeps (ie how many or how long). i now believe that with this kidlet i seriously just parent from teh heart...which comes with confidence (i had none when DD1 was born).
