i became a christian as an adult..i just thought things that seemed intuitive to me- must be warped by sin. so as a new christian..and having my 2nd baby as a christian.. i had a hard time trusting instincts.
i read BW w/ my 2nd. but he wasnt especially needy so i lightly implemented some stuff. with the 3rd- i went full on. we still suffer from that
i knew a very AP family at church- and their kid was Hell on wheeles.
( the pastor gave them the same "discipline" book he gave me, and they put it into action. he did change)

thus further supporting the Ezzo thinking.
my eyes werent opened till my 4th. when i was finally able to breastfeed. it changed everything thats when "instinct" smacked me in the face..and i couldnt supress it.. so i start with feelings..then go after facts to prove or disprove ( which i still need to be careful with)

i dont know how women breastfeed and still do Ezzo..wow. i just dont understand. the internal conflict that must be raging
