having so much joy with my baby: thanks to BellyBelly for helping us!

[tenar]

I just wanted to say, I've been thinking this for a while now:

I'm having so much fun and delight and joyful times (as well as the exhaustion and sometimes confusion and waaaay too much dealing with poo everywhere...) with my baby. She's 6 months old now, and she's just so funny and so delightful. She lights up my life.

Thanks to BellyBelly and the people here for helping me so much so far. I have learned a lot of things from this forum and some of the articles that I wouldn't have learned so much about without this resource. So thanks for teaching me about:

- why it's right that I don't want to leave my daughter to cry

- why it's good for us to sleep together, to be together almost all day, and to plan to keep doing so for a long time yet

- how to be relaxed about my breastfeeding, how to identify problems before they are big problems, how to keep it all rolling along smoothly, how to start to let her learn to eat other foods

- and many other good things.

I really feel that I have access to so much better information than many of the other mums I know. Thanks to all of you for this, I really really appreciate it. It's a part of the reason why my daughter is so happy and healthy and such a joy to me.

I've only been a member for a little over a month, but I'd like to express similar sentiments. I've learnt so much from you ladies, and I look forward to learning even more as I continue along this wonderful journey.

BB members just plain rock.

She's one of my favourite literary characters... a strong woman, among other things.
