Baby Talk. What is it about a baby that makes you coo-chi-coo. With a da-da-da and a ba-ba-ba and a raspberry thrown in to. And you wonder why your baby is crying and then throws up! It's no-more than a parent deserves. The reason you see and baby agrees your getting on baby's nerves. Your baby doesn't want to hear your ba-ba, da-da and coo-chi-coo. It's not what baby understands and baby expects much more from you. After all you are the parent with baby's future to prepare. From birth you plan and plot a lot with others you compare. But I think that I should tell you your baby's favourite thing it's not when you coo-chi-coo, but rather when you sing.

Interesting take on it, Patricia, and I think you're probably right.

HAA! Hey Doug thanks but you know I remember when my grandchildren were born and you can't help but coo-chi-coo to those sweet cute faces looking back at you and thinking they've come to the wrong planet. It makes me laugh. When my grandson had his first child and he was the stay home dad. I caught him doing the same thing. is that my fault it probably goes way back. haa aah.
