Anyone have a baby who never cries? (Bragplaint-y)
Lila almost literally never cries. She does a little grunty thing when she is hungry, but never cries. In the last month, I have heard her scream one time, and that is when I took her off one breast and put her on the other.
I don't have a clue where this kid came from.
Jack was a great baby but this one is unnervingly good. She STTN, eats like a champ, and is sweet as can be.
We are going to have a horrifying teenager. There has to be payback.
(And yes, I am fully aware that this might not last. Jack was awesome til about 9 months, and then he stopped STTN completely. We had to CIO.)

This post makes me feel like the lady in your siggy.
Just shush on the perfect babies today.
ETA: I know I shouldnt have opened it, you warned me in the title. I'm trying hard not to hate you.
LOL
Remember, I am also dealing with a 2.5 year old...and potty training. Life is not sunshine and roses forever, that is for damn sure!
Just kidding... sort of lol
Edit: I should add that my baby doesn't cry all the time, but this last week with this damn nursing strike and his thrush he's been Super upset and it's been breaking my heart.
Me! She cries after her bath during the time I'm drying her and putting lotion on. Once her diaper is on she is quiet again. She's really just a content little girl!
She grunts when she wakes up or if she needs to poop or burp. Otherwise it's just smiles and coos.

This is us.
My husband and I call her "The trap"; she is going to trick us into more children who will be terrors. She just started crying when she has to burp, because we are taking the bottle away; but she rarely cries for hunger or anything. We wake her to eat during the day, because she will literally go all day without eating if we didn't. She has been sleeping through the night I think around 5 weeks. (10:30-5am) By two months she has been sleeping from 9:30-6am/7am.
We swear we will be in trouble down the road, especially since we had a "meet the baby party" and our friends took pictures, and one of the last pictures he took (and didn't realize it until a week and a half later) was Reese burying her head in my MIL arm, and giving the camera the middle finger.
Yep. Sure sign of trouble. She can't be this good--I keep on wondering when it will just end.
Same here. I attribute it to me being her awesome mother. I mean, awesome mother = awesome baby, right?
Oh, wait. It didn't turn out like that with my DS. haha.
ASB, I think we had our tough babies first
LOL that is possible.
And holy crap the shrieking toddler stage is one I will never miss.
Us too! Dee loves naps, STTN, hardly ever cries... she's so sweet! We had a rough start so I think this is natures way of making up for it.
Sometimes I'd like her to cry a little though... just a little (famous last words).
Violet is like this.
She turned 2 months old yesterday, and slept over 9 hours straight last night. She's also very smiley and interactive! I tell her all the time that she makes being a mommy too easy, and that I won't be prepared for a more difficult baby down the road.
Having said that, I am not looking forward to 2 month shots tomorrow. The ILs are coming in town tomorrow and staying over the weekend, and I'm worried that the combination of the doctor visit and the over-stimulation of having house guests might affect her happy persona for the next couple of days...
BFP #1 9/7/10, EDD 5/14/11, Violet born 5/27/11.
BFP #2 4/9/12, EDD 12/16/12, M/C Rory 4/24/12.
BFP #3 10/6/12, EDD 6/16/12., Matilda born 6/17/13.
Compared to my head banging, temper tantrum throwing, food crumbling, refusing to nap these days two year old, DD is an angel sent from God to remind mommy that Drew use to be cute and cuddly too.
Compared to most other kids her age, she is just about average.
I know I already posted a mean picture
but it was mostly because I've had a very hard week with LO. He's totally not himself with this bout of thrush and has screamed at me more than he ever has.
Normally, my baby is Super happy and will laugh and smile at me all day long if I didn't have things to do. I have many many pictures to prove it. And now that I've had time to relax for the evening I take back my picture and telling people they suck.
If you can't tell, I have a wicked guilty conscience and felt bad for my post (even though I was joking around), for you and for my Elliott. I didn't want people to think I'm mean, or he's a 'bad' baby.
DITTO this exactly. I think that is how you are able to love your second kid equally right away. They are such angels in comparison to toddlers (and why didn't anyone tell me that the terrible 2's start before kids even turn 2?!).
