Kitty I disagree, there is no reason why the suggestion you made should be construed as been anything but helpful, and it’s a good idea that undoubtedly help others facing motherhood or farther hood for the first time. I am surprised that more mothers/parents haven’t responded to this post.
All that I think we are saying is that at certain times the right advise can only be taken from those appropriately qualified to give it and in that circumstance I mean medical problems etc.
But I agree that there is nothing better than experience and being able to compare notes with those who have something to offer. What you are asking is something that our grandparents took for granted; they had closer communities that offered advice and support without question, criticism or sigma. We’ve lost that sense of community in the country, but there’s nothing wrong in wanting to change things for the better.
