Everyone here is so perfect! It seems you all wear your babies constantly,
co-sleep with them when you aren't wearing them, rock them for hours on end
while they scream, and manage all this even with a dozen other children
besides and a successful career. Those of you who don't have a career cook,
bake, make your own clothes, baby products, and are basically Martha Stewart
minus the criminal record. Still others of you are _always right_ or at
least have an annoying way of posting which makes it appear that way to
everyone who reads you, myself included. Do you ever get hormonal,
overtired? What is your breaking point? Do you have one?


Of course everyone does--at least I do. If you'd been
around here longer, you'd likely see it ;-) And you have to keep
in mind that when people post in response to a question, it's
usually because that's an area where they've had some success
or have some information (otherwise, what would they say?).
But if you'll take note, not everyone responds to every question.
A bunch of them are reading right along with the OP, hoping to
find a solution to a similar problem. There are thousands of
people who read this newsgroup. With a group that big, there's
almost always someone who's got a particular area whipped into
shape, and there's usually someone who who does X, whatever it
might be. If you munge all that together, sure, you'll get
Super Mom--that's why this group can be so useful. But if
you look closely, no one person does it all.

Best wishes,
