>> First time parents are usually more nervous than parents w/ previous experience... That said, all bets are off w/ kids w/ medical conditions such as CF, bad colic, etc. << She has bad reflux like her father which is one of the causes the of the generic term "colic". Our baby would not sleep and cried constantly. Unless you go though this then you cannot understand. Most people do not go through this and just think we were just inexperienced new parents. If you took her on a half hour car ride, you got a half hour of screaming. If you took her on a 1 hour car ride you got one hour of screaming, etc. etc. She did not sleep in the car, your arms, in the baby carrier, the bouncer/rocker, the swing, etc. Even today you have 1 shot at getting even a short nap out of her during the day. If she hears 1 noise or vibration she is up and that's it even if she is 5 minutes into her nap. She's not going back to sleep. Bryan
