What would babies say if they could talk?

 Hello, I am a Baby.

You, the ones who admire the big people, think that life is easy, with no responsibilities, and full of freedom. You think that you live carefree, with your bread in your hands and water flowing freely. But sorry, my life is nothing like that.

For example, I cannot speak like you. I cannot express my feelings or my needs clearly. Sometimes I am hungry, sometimes I have soiled myself, sometimes I am sad, sometimes I am angry. But I can’t tell you about any of these; I just cry. There’s always a reason for my crying, but sometimes you accuse me of being "spoiled." But none of this is spoiled behavior.

Sometimes I sweat a lot, sometimes I am cold, sometimes I am silent, sometimes I get hungry, or I may have a pain somewhere. I may feel upset, stressed, or angry, and I can’t explain this to you. I might soil myself too, and I would like you to understand how difficult that can be. Luckily, since my cortex isn’t fully developed yet, I forget. But forgetting doesn’t mean I don’t have feelings. Even though I may forget, my emotions are stored in my subconscious, just like an imprint. So, nothing in my life “goes away,” everything leaves a mark, everything affects me.

The world seems so big to me, everything looks giant. That’s why I’m often scared. But when I’m in my mother’s arms, I feel safe and calm. But sometimes she complains, feeling like her work never ends. I understand how tough it is for her, but sometimes I just want her to be with me.

And let me ask you this: Do strangers love you, want to kiss you, touch you, and show you affection? Have you ever thought about how you feel when someone tries to kiss you or force affection on you? When they say, "I’m upset" if I don’t respond, it teaches me something. They teach me that "my feelings don’t matter, you just need to conform to what I want!" It’s really tough. But if only you knew, I also need respect, not just love.

When I can’t speak or when you think I’m too small, please don’t believe I don’t have feelings. I am an individual, and I have my place in this world. And I, too, help shape society! Just love me, show respect, and be an example. Remember, you are my reflection, and your behavior is very important to me. Please talk to me at my eye level, understand me, and listen to me. Life is not as easy as you think, I have my own world, too.

Thank you for listening.

Signed: I am the Baby.

Sleeping In The Same Bed With The Baby

Should You Sleep in the Same Bed with Your Baby? I still remember the first night I brought my baby home. The house was quiet, but my mind was loud with worry. Every little sound he made had me sitting up, checking his tiny chest to make sure he was still breathing. It felt unnatural to put him in his crib, just a few feet away, when all I wanted was to hold him close. That’s when I first wondered—should I just let him sleep next to me? Wouldn’t it be easier? Safer? Warmer? The idea of bed-sharing has been around for centuries. Many cultures see it as the most natural way for a mother and baby to sleep. In Japan, for example, the practice is called "kawa no ji," where the mother, father, and baby sleep together in a pattern resembling the kanji for "river" (川). Meanwhile, in Western societies, pediatricians often warn against it, citing safety concerns. So, who is right? The Science and the Stories Dr. James McKenna, a leading researcher on mother-infant sleep, argu...

Some Questions About Giving Birth In The USA

The Hidden Costs of Giving Birth in America The experience of childbirth is one of life’s most profound and transformative moments, but it comes with a hefty price tag in the United States. If you're planning to give birth in the U.S., it's essential to prepare for the potential costs. From the hospital stay to medical tests and medications, there’s much more to consider than just the delivery itself. So, how much can you expect to pay? A Closer Look at Birth Costs in America Childbirth in America can range anywhere from $10,000 to $15,000, depending on various factors such as the type of delivery, your location, and the hospital you choose.
