Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums Identification, Testing & Assessment Infant Alertness

Nipple, nipple, nipple. There, I said it, too! No shame in in at all.

I, too, had a baby that helped with her own C-section. She was oblique and breech and 'jumped' (that was the OB's word) out. Her legs sprung out and she sat right up into her hands. I'll have to take her word for it I guess. She was born at 32 wks and was a super alert baby right from the beginning. Super cranky, as well!

I work with newborns and can say with assurance that there are some that just seem to be more 'with it' than others.
