Worry Doesn’t Fix Anything #aMillionMoms

Wednesday, November 16, 2011 by Lolli

What’s your favorite tip for raising a healthy baby?

When my first daughter was born, there was so much about being a mother and raising a child that I was completely and utterly clueless about.

I had a good example to follow – my mom was (and still is) a fabulous mother. I knew what I wanted my “end result” to be, but it didn’t dawn on me til I was holding my new daughter that I really had no clue how to get there.

I was blessed with a beautiful, healthy 7 pound, 11 ounce little girl. She was a ball of perfection with a little curl on top of her forehead. I couldn’t have been happier.

When I brought her home from the hospital, we settled into a routine pretty quickly. She slept rather well during the day and then once 10:00 pm hit, she would wake up and be a monster all night long. She screamed and arched her back for hours at a time, and if I was lucky enough to get her to go to sleep, she would wake up as soon as I put her down.

It took me months to admit it, but my baby girl was colicky….

Finish reading my story on ABC News’ Million Moms Challenge.

When you comment on my post over there, you will not only make me smile, but you will be entered to win some amazing prizes (an exclusive Million Moms Challenge Gift Pack, which includes an iPad2, a custom-made Million Moms Challenge pendant and a $50 donation in your name to Global Giving). Plus, you too can become a part of the Million Mom’s Challenge – a call to make healthy pregnancies, safe births, and children who survive and thrive a basic right around the world. You don’t need to be a mom to help a mom. You just need to be one in a million.

If they can find 100,000 people to sign on to the Million Moms Challenge, Johnson & Johnson will donate a total of $100,000 to several of the biggest NGOs helping moms and babies throughout the world.
