I think I’m pretty talented… I take my 7.5 month old with me to work (since 2 weeks old) and actually manage to get work done Thankfully I work for my mom’s company so I get away with a lot (like letting the phone go to the machine because I’m in the middle of a poop-splosion.)

Lack of sleep is the absolute worst part of being a new parent. I have never been one to function well without sleep under normal circumstances let alone with a baby. Wishing you the best and enjoyed reading your article.

Julie you are my hero!! What a good momma you are. Your babes (and your hubs) are lucky to have you. And we’re lucky to have you too – what would us moms do without your labels! Seriously, you’re an inspiration Julie.

Oh boy I just read this post and your Christmas hospital post, hope your baby boy’s breathing gets better. I grew up with bad asthma and its not fun. Luckily my 4 kids have had minimal breathing problems so far (we have the home nebulizer but don’t use it more than a few times a year). I have to admit my super talent is the doing multiple things while breastfeeding and changing diapers anywhere (like on a carousel ride).

Hey Karma – got my karmas mixed up again!! The other karma just won a local dancing with the stars contest!!
But moms and dads definately different animals. I’m often in shock that he can’t hear someone crying in the night. I watch for him to respond, and nothing! just keeps on snoring away!

Loukia – that sounds like it was awful for your little guy and you! It is so hard when one is in hospital and you have others at home. I felt terrible….told the kids I was just popping down to the hospital to get a ventolin treatment, but then we were admitted so I was gone for days!
And Melissa, good idea to keep mum about those 7:30pm bed times. LOL!
Karma – I think being able to win dancin’ with the stars while working and raising a kid counts as a superpower!!

This post made me laugh – I don’t know what it is about moms vs. dads – we are not cut from the same cloth for sure! (for the most part, anyways)
My superpower? Who knows…good question!
