Mommy the one armed wonder
Ever since having Cailen, I'm amazed at how much I can do with one arm (because the other one is holding him)
but tonight, at Northport, I went to the bathroom holding him - unbuttoned my button fly, squatted, peed, washed my hands, AND buttoned my pants back up, with Cailen tucked under my arm like a newspaper!!!
Ahhh.... the skills to pay the bills....

Re: Mommy the one armed wonder
please tell me that skill comes in the mommy package because I need to learn it. I almost had a little accident the other day for the first time. I didn't know what to do with my son. And I was home which is the silly part. Finally mommy genius over here put him in his PNP where he fussed for the 2 minutes it took me to go. But it had me thinking what I would ever do if I were in public and that happened.

How old is your baby? This is a skill that took 5 mts to hone - trust me - I couldnt do anything with 2 hands when Cailen was born!!!!

six weeks --- so I guess you're saying that I have some practice ahead of me. The part that I think would be difficult is getting the pants up and down. That takes some skills.

I have picked up many an item from the floor with my feet... burp cloths, bibs, etc.
Next year, I might join the circus

Re: Mommy the one armed wonder
I have done so much of this the arm that I hold DD with is really bothering me so much I have already gone to the DR once because I swore I had Carpal tunnel in my wrist but its overuse of the wrist/arm holding her. Its my right arm and Im LEFTY keeping the good hand free to do EVERYTHING
