So everything we've read and heard tells us to make our baby feel like she's still in the womb - swaddle, shhhh, swing, etc. This wisdom is working for us for the most part but I have a sneaking suspicion our daughter is a non-conformist. I wonder where she gets that from. Sometimes she is totally content laying on her back kicking and flailing for joy. We do, however, know five different ways to wrap a baby now. You never know when your life might depend on that sort of skill. All in all the moments of seeing our baby calm and asleep or awake and happy seem to outweigh the lack of sleep and the late night crying that cuts straight through to your bones like an arctic wind. It's awesome being a dad.
