infant development class?
Babies! I thought this psychology class would be more about life span development but apparently its about babies. Every week we read about babies and how they grow and prenatal and postnatal development. WTF! i should have read more about which class i was taking but i'm stuck now. its alright i guess i just wish we would move on to childhood development instead of so much baby stuff. It was so sad i was reading about how there is about 3,000 SIDS deaths everyyear. Thats so terrible why isnt there more research about infant deaths? Isn't there more that could be done about our babies dying of SIDS or stillbirth?
I dont know about anyone else but i feel like i was totally shortchanged at my OB's because i had an average of 5 minutes with my doctor and about 45 minutes waiting. I wish they paid more attention but it seems that because most ppl don't consider a fetus to be a human yet it isn't a huge priority in medicine. But it is to the mothers and fathers who lose them. Sophia was a person to me just like all our babies here were the minute we knew they existed.
I just need to deal with it and study and take my exams. But this is cruel and unusual punishment to take a class thats so focused on little babies constantly and it reminds me of all that i read when i was pregnant. I make little mental notes about the advantages and disadvantages of breast milk and different parenting styles from a psychological view and then i stop and remember that i don't have a baby. And all the pictures!
ok, pray for me sisters i got to read more of this book. I better get an A tomorrow!
