Every story is different, but my being here is also due to my desire for my little one to have a smoother childhood than I had. Was I 2e, maybe, maybe not, but grade school was not the easy time of my life.
My dd, now 2.5 yo, at 3 months old loved being told all about the house, and the neighborhood. She loved zebras and alligators. She too was very vocal and interactive in a quite meaningful way.
Sensitive, yes definitely. She appeared to have colic, but I found taking her for walks to show her things seemed relieved her discomfort. Maybe she needed extra stimulation, or maybe it just helped her digestion. At that age, we definitely were mostly looking for things that worked. Actually, that is still true, and I am sure it is true for most parents.
