After dealing with some repeated fussy evenings over the last week or two (mostly Porter, sometimes Steve), we found that a nice bounce-step while carrying him face down in the crook of your arm tends to work like magic…although Steve can get a little heavy after a while.
F.Y.I. Decades ago in the ’70’s, this position was called the ” Football Hold”. You see we didn’t have all the new fangled devices like baby slings and such to keep our precious ones happy while we washed dishes (by hand), vacuumed, did laundry, or even washed the car. So, this was our way to keep our sweet little ones content. Sometimes the old ways are tried and true. All I know is,Natalie, you and Celene spent alot of time in that position and I’m glad to see Porter loves it too.
