So after you have your first child no matter how often you are around other people's children you realize immediately how little you really know about babies and what is normal.. but in my case I was lucky enough to find two other moms in similar situations who in short have helped me determine that Chase is not "simple" when his eyes cross or when he couldn't seem to follow anything or when he seemed absolutely oblivious to my voice.. They also helped me find things that can make life easier like the miracle blanket ( I swear by this item) or the jumperoo (as I watched Aiden jumping for a straight hour I determined this was a must buy).. and it is always reassuring to hear you aren't the only mom who sometimes had a glass or two (or even a bottle) of wine at night.. and there are even test strips to find out if you are "ok" to feed your child.. In other words these two women who I met after having Chase have had quite an influence on keeping my sanity and to them I say THANK YOU!!
