NO MORE WIRE HANGERS!!!!!! Okay, so it didn't turn out that bad. She did say she was experiencing post partum depression on the last night. lol I couldn't help but laugh as she was telling me this as her eyes welled up with tears. She giggled too but I think it was a pretty stressful weekend for her. She is taking an early childhood class this semester and she was able to participate in experiencing motherhood for a weekend. She brought home her electronic son, Landon. He came with a carrier, diaper bag, and a bracelet that she had to scan each time he needed to be fed, burped, rocked or changed. Every time he would cry she had to run and scan her bracelet and then begin changing, feeding or burping until he calmed down and slept. There were times when he was crying every ten minutes. He would go into sleep mode but for just a few hours but when he was up, he was up. The first night her friend Chrisi-Jo spent the night and she had a baby as well. I got up at 2 am and walked by the door and could hear one of the babies crying. It seems Christi Jo's baby cried off and on from 1am to 4am. Then Landon decided to keep them up from 5am-10 am. I was wondering why I had to sign a release stating I would not let my daughter drive if she was extremely tired. She made it but it was tough. I had my doubts but she pulled through like a trooper and actually got the highest grade in the class. All in all it turned out to be a great experience for her. Instead of wanting to be a young mom at 22 she has decided to wait another 20 years before she enters into motherhood. I sure hope she sticks to that plan.
