    Lol thanks guys! I thought you would all would just get a kick out of me mothering.

    Later this day...

    Ok so it's about 6 o'clock and Nay-Nay hasn't been making a sound, aside from creepy breathing noise that is. My lovely little sister has been "baby-sitting" for me and asked me all of what the baby can do. I go on to explain and casually say the baby can move it's neck and head. "Oh so the baby can turn it's head on it's own?" Asks Savannah. *shivers* No Savannah the baby CAN NOT turn it's head on it's own. Savannah listen to me, if it does at all, even slightly move it's head on its own. I want you to run! Don't think about it just run, get the heck out of this room!!

    Hmm so now it's bath time(for me that is) Nay-Nay comes in with me, of course, and I set her up on the floor. All is quiet for maybe 20 minutes. Then it's "goo goo WAAAAAAAH!" Geez girl I thought I was done parenting?! Out of the tub and onto the cold floor I go. What does she want? You got it, a bottle AGAIN. So this time I'm totally prepared. Propping a blanket on top of her I hold the bottle so she can drink with out me. But no she has to make it difficult this time, first she sucks with out a problem then "waaaaaah" then she sucks ok again then "waaaaah" then it's a coo, as if saying ok I'm done, but then again "waaaaaaah". I tried to burp her, change her diaper, and then finally I try the bottle again. The brat takes it AGAIN. Now I'm starting to wonder if I'm just going to have a fat kid on my hands? But no she finally stops and is happy. YAY back into the bath now! Nay-Nay totally had different plans though. As soon as I got in, she started crying hard core. What now Nay-Nay?! Bottle? Nope. Burp? Nope. Just fussy?(oh yes they can be fussy for no reason) big NOPE. Time for a diaper change. So here I am naked and wet sitting on a cold, tile floor changing a doll's diaper. Really now, how many other 18 year olds do you know that do this? I'm thinking I need to figure out my life now and get some things straight.
    1. Buy a robe
    2. Put carpet in the bathroom
    3. Never have kids

    So finally back into the tub and all is quiet. Good baby already she's learning Megan's Golden Rule, which btw is Children should be seen and not heard.

    Fast forward to right now(10:10 pm) My mom has been messing with her ever since she home from work. My mom did everything she could to try to wake her up, but thankfully being the awesome baby she was at the moment, she didn't. Hehe Nope trying to act innocent and low maintenance she didn't make one peep while my mom was awake.. I told my mom she better spend as much time as possible with her new granddaughter because that's the only kid she's getting from me. Course I think that must have upset Nay-Nay a bit because as soon as my mom walked upstairs to go to bed. Here she cries and screams. For what you may ask? A bottle. I took the liberty of taking a pic and making some videos that I will upload later. One of her sucking on the bottle and the other of her crying and then sucking on the bottle. You know this parenting stuff isn't so hard. Shove something in there mouth and have propped up. You're good to go for the rest of the night! It is not 10:18 pm and she just stopped sucking. I had to move her up on the table to finish(with good ole trusty Pillow propper) because my Yorkie mix, Emmy, thought she herself would make a good pillow and jumped into the car seat not once but twice. Both times freaking me out immensely because well I thought she might snap her neck and die. Now there's a headline. Blind, 15 year old Yorkie mix kills baby. Yorkie's excuse? She was cold.
    Well now I'm off to bed. Wish me a good night and let's hope baby sleeps through it!

    If Baby think it over slept through the night then that doll will have lost all realism A real 9 ponder would probably want to eat every 2-3 hours. I've had plenty of bathroom floor moments with my boys My youngest has some sort of extra sense that tells him when Mommy is about to get in the shower so he can scream
    I laughed all along with your story So fun!

    careful those BSL people will have new targets if this happens . thanks for realizing it's not right for you. bad parenting is easy, mediocre parenting is everywhere, and good parenting is really hard and rare. kindest regards, childfree joyce in columbus

    Lol yes I did get an A The computer in the baby said I did no mishandling(abuse) and only forgot to feed the baby 3 times, which in my favor was at 2, 3, and 5 am, sorry but I'm a growing teen and well I don't wake easy. Anyways other than that I did everything right for the baby and it even said I rocked it when it wanted to be rocked, eh? I didn't even know it wanted that. Funny thing is I trade in the fake baby and now am watching a real one. My 1 year old neice who's visiting for the weekend. For some strange strange reason, Aunt Megan is her absolute favorite and when I'm home she just wants to be with me always. I must admit, I love the little squirt.

    And were is this kid's father? I think this is a great idea and every teenager should have to do this. For every stupid 14 year old who says "I want a baby, I want someone to love" This is the doll for them.

    ^agreed.
    "I want a baby, I want someone to love"
    then they have one and this comes to mind-
    "ow! i dont want it any more it hurts!"
    "why are you crying?! WHY WONT YOU STOP!"

    anyway, if i had to do that course thing, i'd probably end up punt kicking the doll over the horizon. i dislike children with great intensity. i dont know why.

    congrats on the A :P

    thank you so much for the sig ellie! (whisk_luva)

    I had a friend who did this course too and when her baby wouldn't stop crying she umm threw it in the freezer... it shut up.

    LMAO!! I had that EXACT same doll in grade 11, I had to take it home and take care of it as well. I ended up putting it in my freezer haha.. I dont reccomend doing that lol. But the thing drove me absolutly bonkers, I had it for a whole weekend! and lemme tell ya, I must have gotten a kolicy one because the thing cried non stop.. Now if I am watching a movie, and i notice that they use the voice recording of that baby doll as an effect int he movie, It really gives me the chills.. the cry of those dolls is like nails on a chalk board to me.. Anyways I want to tell you that having a REAL baby is NOTHING like having one of those dolls, those hings are really unrealistic.. and i agree i think they are demonic too hahaha

    Thank goodness you got an A! Great job! Bet you get an A in creative writing classes too, huh?

    I just didn't want you to fail and have to repeat this; don't think I could stand the laughter!

    Megan, there's nothing sick/immoral/shortsighted/misguided about knowing you're not a kid person. Just because you're female doesn't mean you're automatically going to wig if you don't procreate by age X. Find other local like-minded folks to talk about when the pressure starts. (I got out of it because my younger brother is a dad!)

    Love, Columbine (sliding into the Safe Zone anyway, but my age pretty much doesn't matter now because I don't want to pull a man's weight either!)
