I was an easy baby. My brother and I were only 14 months apart, and we lived in a rural area so I had to walk a lot since we couldn't use a stroller.
My brother on the other hand, was a very fussy, difficult baby.
I think Charlie was a pretty easy baby. Olive is a little fussier, but doesn't seem harder since she's my second and I'm more lax.
Were you an easy baby? Is your LO easy or difficult?

My mom says I was an easy baby but a horrendous toddler/kid. DS is crazy easy!

My mom says I was always very alert, very active, didn't like to sleep or miss anything - and DS is just like that, haha

Not in the least! I was born 2 months early, in NICU for 3 weeks and then back in the hospital 3 weeks later with pneumonia. Then I was very colicky. My poor mom!

Yup. Super easy baby! But in mom's words it all went to hell once I learned to talk. I was sassy.

My parents said if I had come first, I would have been an only child. Apparently I cried pretty much from birth through my first year, only breaking to eat and poop. DD has MSPI, so she was tough until we figured that out, now things are much better. Makes me wonder if I had the same thing and just grew out of it?

Apparently I was pretty easy. So was DH. So is my daughter. My younger sister was not so easy. I'm pretty worried that if we go for a second baby that s/he will be a difficult child, and that will be tough!

According to my mom, I was really easy. Except when I had whooping cough at 4 months old. DS was such a difficult baby, while DD is pretty easy. She likes to be worn, she did love sleep until she hit 4 months and she is easily entertained.

I was. I was the third child so my mom just stuck me in a corner and I watched my siblings run around for entertainment.
Lo is pretty easy now. She had reflux.... so she wasn't an easy newborn.

Not sure as a baby but I heard I was an impossible toddler. Maybe that's where Nicholas gets it from. LOL! My grand aunt and aunts had to chase me out of the house and up the hill to feed me meals. I also heard they had to tie me down to feed me too.

Yep! My mom said all I did was eat and sleep! No crying, no fussing... she actually attributes to my non-singing abilities to my NO CRYING! she said my vocal chords prolly didn't get a chance to develop/practice!
my lil bro on the other hand was a crier/picky eater (he does have a great voice by the way!) LOL

My mom says I was an easy baby. My older brother was the tough baby - he was always sick, didn't eat well, cried a lot, etc.
My LO was tough - colicky and just a tough one for a first time mom!

I was the fourth kid and apparently a dream, and an even easier toddler. Both of my parents, separately, claim that I potty-trained myself...that one day when I was 18 or so months old I demanded "big girl panties" and that "yes, I know what to do". And apparently, I did 
I haven't decided whether or not DS is easy. Some days he's great, more days than not he just wants to be held, upright, while you're standing, and will freak out if you're not. He's very clingy still (but he's only 10 weeks old). When he's with me he pretty constantly wants to be nursing. But he's a great eater, and his night sleep is getting good, so I can't complain.

My parents have told me that I was incredibly easy. Supposedly when I was born I came out doing a little pigeon coo rather than crying.

My mom said I was an easy baby. I just ate and sleep, and if I was awake, self-entertainment was easy. Not much crying (unless I need my diaper changed or needed to be fed) nor fussiness.

My mom said I was a horrible baby Cried 24/7, couldn't sleep unless I was constantly rocked/held, couldn't be separated from her for more than a second (she said she didn't pee alone until I went to kindergarten! Hahaha).
L, on the other hand, is the sweetest, cheeriest, easiest baby ever. I thank my lucky stars every day

I was not an easy baby, I insisted on being held all the time and is scream if my mom would put me down. Our LO is Avery easy baby. DH was a very easy baby according to my MIL.
