[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]None. I go by what I learned growing up[/quote] How did you learn how to breastfeed or sleep train an infant? How could you remember that. [/quote] NP, but I grew up in a religion that is very family-oriented and has a strong community. As a result, I was volunteering with kids as a middle-schooler, babysitting as a high-schooler, as a young adult I would see moms or dads with babies and kids every week at church or church-related activities and would hear about their experiences, hold their babies sometimes to be helpful and see them nurse/bottlefeed/diaper/burp/rock/etc. their babies and watch them guiding and disciplining toddlers and older kids. I knew roughly what to expect at different stages of development, knew what a lot of the big hurdles were, had heard some of the common approaches to sleep, etc. just by osmosis from having been around a lot of babies and kids.[/quote]
