Things I do that people have thought are unusual

Wearing my baby - I thought that was pretty common, but I rarely see it in my small town.
Pumping - sadly, I don't know anyone else who works and pumps, and I only have one friend who has done it successfully.
Making my own baby food - ok, but it's fun and way cheaper, and more nutritious.
Making my own baby cereal - but we think Lennon is iron intolerant, so the fortified stuff is a no-go for us.
Using Gripe Water. I can't believe everyone doesn't use this stuff. It is WONDERFUL stuff.
Ditto about Culturelle.
Reading to my baby as early as he could sit supported. I think it's important to start reading early so they never know life without it.

  1. Oh, and I DON'T believe in letting my baby "cry it out", or cry himself to sleep. My pediatrician more or less rolls her eyes at this, but whatever. He's mine.
