Supercliche, I know. But nine weeks into her life, Elizabeth Rose has decided that lying on her back is preferable to being held. Barb and I made a real effort to keep her close to us, either in arms or in the Moby, after she was born. At first, what soothed the baby girl was being held and walked. Then she graduated to being bounced on the physioball (see photo). Now, finally, she is a big girl and wants to lie on her back, wave her tiny limbs around, squeak and squawk, and generally be independent.

I bounced my daughter on a similiar ball all the time. It was the only thing that soothed her.
