Skill I didnt know I would need

Marinowski

New skill I learned today; how to care for a 4 month old one handed. I cut open my thumb and needed stitches but i was home alone with Z. It's so hard. I now have even more admiration for people missing limbs

my daughter was due in November but born 6 weeks early in October so I tend to post on both boards.
And no I was not comparing them. Since I cut an artery and was told to not use my hand today, I am operating one handed. It was a little eye opening just how dependent I am on having 2 hands Wasn't trying to offend, just had the observation

Ouch! Were you home alone with your baby when you cut yourself?

Marinowski

Yes I was home alone but luckily my husband was able to get home quickly and he can work from home today

How'd you cut yourself? That sounds incredibly painful

I'm surprised you've gone 4 months without having to use the one-handed skill.
