Be warned. It is a thing.Only at 3 months now.
Edit: The funniest and most alarming outbreak we dealt with was with number two son. He would get in a tantrum, fall on the floor and lie there not breathing. I sh1t you not. He would go blue. Doctor's advice was to make light of it and that's what we did. I'd say things like "your lips don't match the colour of your jumper" or "blue isn't your colour". It worked. :eek:

I don't doubt it. Apparently that's when they start identifying themselves as individuals apart from their parents which then leads to the behaviour. If our little one is half as stubborn as either of her parents though we're in for some fun times....

Oh yeah. It's always about testing boundaries and establishing their place in the greater scheme of things. Our GP told us that if we didn't nip that particular outbreak in the bud, it would escalate to unconsciousness. It's extraordinary to think that a kid that young could overcome their body's natural reactions to that extent.I don't doubt it. Apparently that's when they start identifying themselves as individuals apart from their parents which then leads to the behaviour.

I remember my wife asking in sheer terror "What happens if he goes unconscious?" and the GP replying, "He'll start breathing again".
I must remind him of that episode. 0 -

And Buer, I don't have kids. At least, none that the government can deduct from my wages.

When you have kids you don't need the government to deduct money from your wages. They do a good job of that themselves!0 -
Yeah, we went back to the hospital when the baby was 9 months old for a ride! :rolleyes:
Duuurty.Teething already?!
Yes. She's ahead of her time in many ways. Sure she was holding her head up inside the first week. I must check again what those drugs the wife was taking during pregnancy were......Yeah_Right wrote: »Its one way to pass the time while the kid is getting their jabs

Psst, the Government pays you to have children here.0 -

You been sheep
In NZ a woman can name you as the father of her child and the first you would know about it is when money started coming out of your wages for child support. It would then be up to you to go to court to get access or prove you weren't the father. Courtesy of the previous Labour/Green government. I swear thats not why I moved to Ireland
Sorry, I forgot. Congrats ZZippy

I can't see how anything could possibly go wrong with a scheme like that....0 -
