But it's possible I'm overestimating how well I remember! meredithNYC on "do you forget a lot of the newborn/young infant days?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-forget-a-lot-of-the-newbornyoung-infant-days#post-1830075 Thu, 21 Aug 2014 21:16:25 +0000 meredithNYC 1830075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Espion: I'm 6 weeks and right there with you.

Omg yes. My sister has a 5 month old and she had been asking me questions along the way and I can never remember anything from those early days!!!

I'm only 17 weeks and I can't wait for this next one to be 6 months old!! fairy on "do you forget a lot of the newborn/young infant days?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-forget-a-lot-of-the-newbornyoung-infant-days#post-1830025 Thu, 21 Aug 2014 21:01:29 +0000 fairy 1830025@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I feel like I remember it really well, maybe because I am a sahm so this is what I do all day haha but I feel like it is still fresh in my mind at 14 months. However, when Luna was a newborn, I wanted her to stay that age forever and now when I see newborns I'm thinking... Naaaaah no thanks lol! I will know I'm ready for another when I start to miss that stage again. Right now I'm loving 12-14 months!

It is all perfectly fresh and why I still don't want another. immabeetoo on "do you forget a lot of the newborn/young infant days?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-forget-a-lot-of-the-newbornyoung-infant-days#post-1829915 Thu, 21 Aug 2014 20:18:25 +0000 immabeetoo 1829915@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I have completely blacked out lots of it, which I think is as nature intended otherwise we would all be only children! A friend asked me to hold her 8 week old and I was soooo awkward. There's just something about your own kid I guess! twodoghouse on "do you forget a lot of the newborn/young infant days?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-forget-a-lot-of-the-newbornyoung-infant-days#post-1829898 Thu, 21 Aug 2014 20:13:14 +0000 twodoghouse 1829898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ It's only been 3.5 months and I can barely remember the newborn days. One of my friends had her baby on Monday and was texting with me about overnight asleep. She sai she got 4 hrs total for the whole night and I told SdH that that was insane, our kids always slept well. He's like you haveu amnesia. Are you crazy? I legitimately can't remember the details though! dolphin on "do you forget a lot of the newborn/young infant days?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-forget-a-lot-of-the-newbornyoung-infant-days#post-1829894 Thu, 21 Aug 2014 20:12:35 +0000 dolphin 1829894@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I forgot a lot. Those were my sleep deprived days so it's all a blur.

It's been 7 years since I've done this and I often feel like I don't know what I'm doing! mrsjyw on "do you forget a lot of the newborn/young infant days?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-forget-a-lot-of-the-newbornyoung-infant-days#post-1829734 Thu, 21 Aug 2014 19:25:41 +0000 mrsjyw 1829734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @mrskc: I always say that to BFF who has a girl! So many crevices!! Boys r easier to me! reverie on "do you forget a lot of the newborn/young infant days?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-forget-a-lot-of-the-newbornyoung-infant-days#post-1829716 Thu, 21 Aug 2014 19:21:26 +0000 reverie 1829716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I think I must forget some of the feelings. I know at about 5 weeks in I thought I was one and done... and now I'm antsy to try again. There must be some selective memory going on :) (or all the sleep deprivation makes my memory of that time very hazy) knittylady on "do you forget a lot of the newborn/young infant days?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-forget-a-lot-of-the-newbornyoung-infant-days#post-1829713 Thu, 21 Aug 2014 19:21:04 +0000 knittylady 1829713@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Not enough! One of the drawbacks of having your second 15 months later - the tough parts of the newborn days are still very fresh..yikes! mrskc on "do you forget a lot of the newborn/young infant days?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-forget-a-lot-of-the-newbornyoung-infant-days#post-1829703 Thu, 21 Aug 2014 19:18:26 +0000 mrskc 1829703@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @sorrycharlie: so far no open air accidents! That's funny tho because DH and I were a bit lost at first with changing a girl diaper! I think boys are easier or at least seems less delicate to me. I worry I'm not cleaning her good enough. mrsjyw on "do you forget a lot of the newborn/young infant days?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-forget-a-lot-of-the-newbornyoung-infant-days#post-1829663 Thu, 21 Aug 2014 19:08:22 +0000 mrsjyw 1829663@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @sorrycharlie: we had the same pee/diode issue w a! Def forgot a lot of nb days :( sorrycharlie on "do you forget a lot of the newborn/young infant days?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-forget-a-lot-of-the-newbornyoung-infant-days#post-1829534 Thu, 21 Aug 2014 18:32:30 +0000 sorrycharlie 1829534@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @mrskc: lol! I haven't changed a boy in years and years (like, over four years) but from what I remember, girls are much easier to change too. a tip I did with O (not sure if L is the same way) - every single time I opened her diaper to change her, she would pee! it was like the air made her do it. I don't know. so I'd open her diaper, wait a minute, and close it. wait again then change her. hahaha. I was going through SO many freaking diapers before I started dragging it out. mrskc on "do you forget a lot of the newborn/young infant days?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-forget-a-lot-of-the-newbornyoung-infant-days#post-1829522 Thu, 21 Aug 2014 18:27:34 +0000 mrskc 1829522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Now that I have a 4 day old, there is a lot I forgot about! In the hospital the nurse mentioned burping her and I had completely forgotten you're supposed to burp babies! Lol it's all starting to come back to me tho. sorrycharlie on "do you forget a lot of the newborn/young infant days?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-forget-a-lot-of-the-newbornyoung-infant-days#post-1829478 Thu, 21 Aug 2014 18:08:24 +0000 sorrycharlie 1829478@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I do! I mean, I'm sure it'll all come back to me. and I thought I remembered more than I do. When I see threads asking questions about breastfeeding, infant sleep, infant poop, teething, behavior..I want to answer but then I realize I truly don't remember!
