[quote=Anonymous]My dd was a high needs baby - wanting to be held constantly, would never sleep in a crib, we'd have to take her on long walks or car rides to get her to go down for naps. Then as a toddler, - transitions crazy hard, had to carry her out of the mall play area screaming her head off etc. Now she is 9.5, and it wasn't over night, but now she is a delightful girl. She is smart, sensitive, empathetic, intelligent, kind. She does happen to have ADHD diagnosed in 1st grade and lactose intolerant (which may have accounted for some fussiness as a baby). We did go on to have a #2, and she was so much easier as a baby. She tended to grow into a needier child now that she's 7, but it is a delight to have 2 girls. Good luck, I got every book out there - The Difficult Child, The High Needs Baby, Playful Parenting, Unconditional Parenting etc. I can't name them all. Just progress with love, tolerance, patience and of course structure and rules, and you will come through it all. [/quote]
