[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our first baby was incredibly difficult. It's a miracle we dared to have any more kids. The second and third were dream babies and so easy/content. It was a whole new world and I couldn't believe how easy other parents had it til I experienced the difference. [/quote] This was our experience, although we stopped at 2. First was a challenge with severe reflux and colic and very difficult sleep issues that werent resolved until she was nearly 2yo, and the exhaustion triggered severe PPD/PPA for me. 4 years later, DD #2 was a dream baby who barely ever spit up, napped well in her crib, and was sleeping in 5 hour chunks overnight by the time she was 4 weeks old. She's my daredevil child now and has several anaphylactic food allergies, so there's challenges there that we didn't experience with our firstborn, who is now an easygoing 7yo. I guess that's the tradeoff.[/quote]
