[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My first kid is really, really, really, really, really really difficult.

The next child was so freaking easy I thought to myself oh, this is how people have multiple children.

So I went on to have multiple children, but I never thought it was my parenting that made that possible. I always knew it was the kids temperament.

So I wonder why the universe gave me that difficult child it was so I didn’t end up like you.

I can’t even imagine what a snotty self-important a hole I would be without that first child.[/quote]

This is me too. First one was so hard, so sensitive, so much unstoppable crying, terrible sleeper, picky eater, medical issues that required medication every 6 hours (including overnight), so much pent up energy all day. We didn’t get to sleep through the night until the medication and medical issues resolved and the night wakings subsided after he turned 3.

Second one is as easy as can be. Sleeps 12 hours in a row since 4 months with no sleep training. The calmest temperament, eats well, happy to just hang out all day, never cries.

I’m glad OP has had easy children, but come on OP. Hope your hubris doesn’t smack you down during the teen years. [/quote]
