Suzi broke down in tears today.  AJ was a little grizzley and she was thinking about all the masses of advice she has been receiving from people that is contrary to what we have planned.

Things like:

• Moving AJ into his own bed
• Letting him cry until he stops, on his own (I think this is called Ferbering?)  [ Yeah right with a complaint about him always crying? ]
• Cutting back on the Breast Feeding at night in particular
• Getting him into a three meals a day routine [ we dont even have a routine ]
• Suzi and I should get a routine of working during the day and not working at night. [ I can see the ISPs in Australia and some of my corporates being happy about that idea "Sorry we can't help you during your peak period because we don't work at this time. ]
• Get some local child care facility to look after AJ
• Even visit the local Clinic Nurse (the one we sacked in June.)

So she felt very preasured by all of this.

I always thought it was OUR choice to PARENT the way we wanted?

Has something changed whilst I've been bearing my AJ?
