OK...what's wrong?


As a first time momma it is hard to tell what ails a baby.

I am convinced she only cries if she is hungry or struggling for crap. Which she normally is.

BUT... nine times out of ten I get the two confused. I reckon I have done well to narrow potentials down to two.

In the hot weather baby upset is a whole different ballgame. She doesn't even know why she is crying.... is she thirsty? Is she hungry? Is she just plain hot and annoyed?

But the funny thing is there are so many times in her life she will wonder why she is crying, so maybe I should just let her practice. It will normally be because of a boy. But the only two boys in her life at the moment would religiously guard her moses basket or hold her loving whilst watching England play. Guess which one is the dog and which one is the daddy...

The best thing is seeing your baby smile....and knowing the difference between a windy poop smile and a real one. That's when you're a mamma. That's when you high five the dog - and realise you have a pretty cool dog...


...because he KNOWS why you are high fiving him.
