She needs this too.<BR/><BR/>I'll post about my first major outing with K sometime, just to make you feel much better.MJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03010547516401501448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6041269635727474245.post-19632129178858071172009-01-29T08:26:00.000-05:002009-01-29T08:26:00.000-05:00Well done to you, I think that was very brave of y...Well done to you, I think that was very brave of you, it'll be plain sailing from now on I'll bet!

I was on a go-er and a do-er ...Oh, I feel for you. I was on a go-er and a do-er and no matter how much I "prepared", something would usually happen that I wasn't prepared for. Or at the most inopportune time. I also found some people (usually men) very intolerant of mamas pushing strollers. Almost like the assumed I thought I was something special, for no reason at all. I distinctly remember pushing my stroller down a hallway in a dept. store because I had to take the elevator and there were the sensor scan thingys and it went off and the clerk was checking my bag and APPARENTLY I was in some guy's way and he made a very rude comment about how I thought I owned the hall. And I made some comment back to him and I'll spare you the details. ha!Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17786838392389718536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6041269635727474245.post-7453058382554605762009-01-28T12:38:00.000-05:002009-01-28T12:38:00.000-05:00Thanks, Kimberly!

That would have helped.<BR/><BR/>Thanks so much for the advice and encouragement...much appreciated.Jillian's Bella Rosa Antiqueshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04325276255189392605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6041269635727474245.post-55187291976178826132009-01-28T10:49:00.000-05:002009-01-28T10:49:00.000-05:00Jillian, we have all been there, too.

It'll get easier and better. <BR/><BR/>You might try getting one of those clips (clips to their shirt) with a short piece of ribbon (about 4-5")and a snap on it where you can snap the ribbon through the binkie's "handle" and if Dear Bebe drops the binkie it won't hit the floor. It'll just dangle from her shirt. This was a lifesaver for me. I made mine with a baby safety pin, a short piece of elastic and a snap. I safety pinned it to their shirt and was ready for the binkie drop and never had to worry about it hitting a dirty floor again. :)<BR/><BR/>You know, too, other moms could recognize from the cry that Dear Bebe was just tired and wanted to sleep. After a little while, we moms can tell the difference between the "I'm tired, I need a diaper change, I'm bored, I'm hungry, I want attention" cries. The ones who offered encouragement most likely have been there too. So be encouraged....it gets better and you did a great job packing the diaper bag. Enjoy this stage because it is so short. Wait until she's walking! ;)<BR/><BR/>Hugs,<BR/>KimberlyMy Pink Boutiquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08671800907463792864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6041269635727474245.post-45455729349154271642009-01-28T08:34:00.000-05:002009-01-28T08:34:00.000-05:00As I was reading I was thinking of the "back up" b...As I was reading I was thinking of the "back up" binky, honey. Always a good idea. But I'm sure most people are tolerant of a tiny bebe crying when she's been awakened by a screaming toddler! Don't let that get to ya, chick, it won't last forever, trust me.........LOL<BR/>Smooches,<BR/>ConnieConniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07836857167023454619noreply@blogger.com
