Mikaela (who's only only 21 months now) was not as obvious as Liam (who's now 6). She was more placid and easy going generally, but then developed reflux so lots of crying - and now has a wicked temper on her, yet is cheerful and easygoing most of the time (just until you cross her!). Liam was more obvious from birth - interested, engaged, active, not cuddly, and definitely not sleepy! He's still extroverted and active, very much the same.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24519117.post-58688091126733649812008-01-11T08:22:00.000+10:002008-01-11T08:22:00.000+10:00"I think it's just that the whole living-in-the-wo..."I think it's just that the whole living-in-the-world thing is overwhelming at the moment."<BR/><BR/>And who can blame the poor little tyke, really?

After the magic 12 week mark, most of that stops.<BR/>My baby cried most evenings too. That said, his temperament was apparent from birth - quiet and responsive to human connection. He's been pretty much the same for 9 years.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17680687031479016392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24519117.post-73973238809039845522008-01-08T16:01:00.000+10:002008-01-08T16:01:00.000+10:00My mother is an identical twin in looks but they a...My mother is an identical twin in looks but they are so different in temperament and always have been.<BR/> <BR/>They did sometimes have a twin moment in their teens where they would buy a dress only to find the other had bought the same but in a different colour.JahTehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02007730071564639411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24519117.post-45649224491618863172008-01-07T18:38:00.000+10:002008-01-07T18:38:00.000+10:00Clover has been exactly this way since the day she...Clover has been exactly this way since the day she was born! <BR/><BR/>Can we come visit you one morning this week?

He would cry in the evening, but not for long lengths of time. He has been observing the world in earnest since he came out. We think he's an old soul.E. from Pot o' Goldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09820262560676300958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24519117.post-51027144468360888772008-01-06T21:00:00.000+10:002008-01-06T21:00:00.000+10:00He's not a 'bad' baby maybe just a more 'high need...He's not a 'bad' baby maybe just a more 'high need' baby. My high need baby is still high need at 21 yrs who is highly intelligent and keeps me on my toes and my youngest who displayed the same traits as your girl is now a happy go lucky, easy-to-live with delightful 16year old who I wouldn't trade for the world.<BR/><BR/>It's the loving them that never changes.Debstarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10395898347034383133noreply@blogger.com
