My sister’s baby experience, esp during the newborn year, was like night and day with mine. while she never had to sleep train and eventually had the most zen, chill baby, my experience was more standard, ie my girl was colicky for a few months with 1-2 night wakings up until mo 8. She, to this day, attributes our different experiences to her “medical-like” approach to soothing her baby and states she fundamentally doesn’t believe in colic. Oh, also my baby’s temperament is bc I apparently didn’t “make enough milk.” She’s quite convinced and honestly, smug abt this and it drives me crazy. We’re both pregnant and expecting soon, so when I asked her what she’d do if her next one ends up with colic, she told me it’s not a thing and she has the regimen down. How do I not seethe?
