    How do you not get hung up on what other babies are able to do?

    @cocoamoteddy Yesss!!! Thank you! I tried to write the original post to not make it seem like I’m not proud of my son or upset that he’s not accomplishing things. I’m so proud of him and so happy that he’s happy and healthy (and sleeps 9 hours a night).

    How do you not get hung up on what other babies are able to do?

    @ashleymerryman I’m very pro-mom; my dad taught me through his lack of commitment and absence, the type of father I want to be. My mom taught me through her sacrifices, tenacity, and all encompassing love, the type of parent I want to be. My wife is a wonderful mom, truth be told she is the...

    @stephenie46 I feel like this has been the most down to earth response so far. The first year is full of so many firsts for our son and us; my wife is the worrying one and I’m more of the go with the flow type.

    @golecoopar I appreciate the “tough love” but I feel as though you’ve misinterpreted how we view our son. Mostly what I was looking for was some camaraderie that we are not alone in worrying about these sorts of things with the hopes of putting my wife’s mind and anxiety at ease. We’re first...

    How do you not get hung up on what other babies are able to do?

    Lately my wife and I have been having a rough time with feeling like we are “failing” our son, for lack of a better term. He’s 9 months old, born 3 weeks premature, had jaundice which required light therapy, ended up having torticollis which he is in physical therapy for (and has progressed...
