I hate this stage!

My 8 month old just got a grape (from my 3 year old) and put it in her mouth! Scared me half to death! I was yelling "help me" as if I thought my 3 year old could do anything. (BTW... she's fine, just mad at me.) She puts EVERYTHING in her mouth right now. I just hate it! This stage was challenging with one and near to impossible to two kids. It's like 24/7 suicide watch!

Thanks for listening to this vent.... I'm better now. :)

lol. I realized with the second that they could handle a lot more than I thought.

:hug That phase is definitely no fun. I can't imagine having to watch out for two.

i don't look forward to my 2.5 year old feeding the baby...

I was always so paranoid.... It seemed like they could get choked up on air....

I posted waaaaaay to soon! I guess it's that kind of day! :dunno I just got out of the shower (with both girls :sigh) because my 8 month old, once again, started gagging. I turned her tummy down on top of me, patted her back, and she proceeded to throw up 3 times ON ME! The third time I discovered the problem... a corner from a starburst wrapper! Seriously? I think I better get off this computer and start following her around! I think this baby needs a guardian angel. :pray I hope DH gets home soon!

babies have really amazing gag reflexes, sounds like her's is doing it's job really well.

Yes Melody... it works like a charm! :lol
I've decided that to keep her safe, she will be carried in my ergo until she is 3!

Saying prayers for your kids right now!:pray:pray

I'll take the graveyard shift! I'm up anyway! :)

Just occurred to me... "graveyard" may not have been the best choice of words, considering the circumstances...:oops

:hug Sorry for the scare, mama.

:hug That is a really hard stage when you're in it. Luckily, it passed fairly quickly for us and hopefully it will for you too.

I hadn't thought of that! :giggle
