[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom slept through my and my sibling’s cries when we were infants. She even admits that if my dad hadn’t been around to feed us, we would have died. Not all moms have a maternal instinct.[/quote] I often slept through my baby's cries (DH too) and it was fine. My kids were always chubby (they got their nursing in during the day instead of at night I guess), happy and a good side effect is that they sttn by 8 weeks. DH and I were just delirious from sleep deprivation and often I didn't know if I was dreaming that the baby was crying or they actually were. My kids are still great sleepers. Not sure why you think babies would die. [/quote] Dp. The pp's mother was neglectful. Babies need to be fed and cared for. If babies aren't fed and cared for, they can die. If I slept theough my baby's cries, I'd feel like a piece of sh!t and I certainly wouldn't brag about it.[/quote]
