My baby girl. Sound asleep and SUCKING HER THUMB. Donovan wasn't a thumb sucker. Donovan was also a snuggler, loved for you to hold him and be lovey dovey smoochy with him. His sister? Oh no, she's on the move. Likes to see the action. There's something on tv? I must turn and look - nevermind that I was JUST screaming for a bottle and have to crane my neck to see the show thus pulling the once almighty bottle from my mouth. No, it's ok, I wanna see. That's my girl.

My world and your world are pretty much the same right now and I can really identify with your comments. My daughter (#2 5 months) is exactly the same way. Crying and fussing for the bottle and then when feeding time starts interested in everthing else except feeding! I quit trying to chase the mouth. When she cranes the neck...she loses the nipple! Now I feel lucky b/c she is just learning (last week) to hold the bottle herself...THANK GOD! Your comments tickled me b/c I've thought the same things myself before and I could readily empathize.
