Very good point.

He tried to wiggle all over me to get away from the sound. Now he shakes uncontrollobly, paces, cries and pants when there are thunderstorms, litening and fireworks. I feel like I ruined my baby. Keep your baby home, I would if I could go back in time. Guilt just eats me up!!! If there's a loud noise upstairs bailey starts freaking out or fireworks on t.v. or a loud bang in the house. The fireworks show is just not a good idea in MY OPINION. I'm an example that.  |
I appreciate you sharing your story. This is exactly what I feared would happen if Bella was frightened by the fireworks. I definitely will NOT be taking her. And Gingergirlsmom, I appreciate your story as well.
