I read an article once about how that can happen with sitters and new mothers, being exhausted and over stressed with a crying baby and shaking them. That article scared the crap out of me. I wish I'd never read it.

It would frighten you if you had any idea how often this happens. SO OFTEN. Parents, sitters, grandparents. SO OFTEN.

That is basically what the article was saying. How often it happens and how it doesn't even take a hard shake to do damage. Very frightening. I read it in Parenting magazine in a doctor's office when I was like 19 (so very far from even thinking about babies of my own) but it has always stuck with me.
That story horrifies me to the very core. I seriously think I would need counseling after something like that because, just like she said, I don't know how I would ever trust anybody again.
That family member, no matter who it is, would be 6 feet under if they did that to my child. I am soooo angry and sad for her. How terrible that they're dealing with this horror when they should be enjoying their brand new baby girl.
Re: I am mad for her. {LIP}
I read it and started shaking.
I am LIVID for her, and I'm such a biitch I would have filed charges.
That's not even a question. I wouldn't give a rat's ass who it was. I don't think that makes you a biitch. Or we're both biitches.
That is so terrible.

I hope they put that person in jail.
I probably would have too. Who thinks it's okay to shake a baby? Really? Even if it's "not that hard." She did physical harm to that poor baby
