As of today, I have a 1 month old. She is amazing and I love her so much, but she’s boring! Don’t get me wrong, she’s difficult and my wife and I haven’t slept a good night in a month, but all she does is eat, sleep, and poop. There’s basically no interaction.
I’m so looking forward to being able to laugh with her, play with her, and generally start teaching her the world.
How do you feel? What’s your favorite stage of child development?
I am with you. I have two older kids now, but I found infancy super boring. I liked when they were able to get around pretty good on their own, around 2 to 5 yrs was my favorite time. Also, don’t feel like having those thoughts are wrong. A lot of parents will say you’re going to miss those times, maybe, maybe not, every child and parent is different. I’m 7 years past that now and I don’t miss infancy at all. Just do your best, work on building a bond, you’ll be fine.
