I just read another question and one of the answers was "they are held for 40 weeks so you are a comfort and secure", and that got me to thinking... Do you think that brand new little babies are absolutely terrified to enter the world? i would think that it must be terrifying for them to first of all be birthed (is that a word?) and second of all to be cooed at and held and passed from person to person at the beginning.
What do you think? Is it scary for them or do they not really get what's happening?
(ps. that answer that I semi quoted, please dont think I was bashing it, I agreed but it just got the old gears a-grindin' :-)
