I'm mainstream too - thats about right, but the description was a bit off - I did breastfeed and I did co sleep in the beginning. There were questions that offered extreme answers - no middle ground...



I agree there was no middle ground. Some stuff was right on target for me and some were not.

Your Result: Mainstream Parenting

You tend to go with what your Dr suggests and rarely question her opinion. You strongly believe in vaccinating your kids, and usually do it on time. You probably tried to breastfeed and didn't feel guilty when it didn't work out for you. You don't think twice about bottle-feeding and using formula. Why should you? It's a perfectly healthy alternative to breastfeeding. You believe breastfeeding is best up to six months or a year but no longer than that and you wouldn't feel comfortable doing it in public. You stick with good old Huggies or Pampers and Gerber baby foods and snacks. You believe in putting baby to sleep in her crib and her own room from day one. Strict sleep schedules are important to teach baby to sleep well. You don't think twice about cry-it-out methods because it works. You adhere to the advice given in the handouts your Dr gives you during well baby appointments and check-ups and to articles in parenting magazines. You're theory to parenting is why question what worked for so many moms?


sounds right on to me

You lean more toward Attachment Parenting, natural births, homepathic remedies, and living green! You tend to question modern medicine and mainstream parenting. You tend to delay vaccines or use an alternate schedule. You aren't bothered by the fact that people tend to question your parenting style. You feel strongly about the way you're raising your kids. You believe that it's our duty to make the earth a better place for our children by being more eco-friendly. You buy organic foods whenever you can and you use cloth diapers or seriously considered it. You've also considered homeschooling. When people see you with your baby you're usually wearing her in a sling or wrap. You tell new moms who complain about lack of sleep to try co-sleeping with baby and let them know how much you loved co-sleeping. You believe in breastfeeding and baby led weaning, but to a point. And you'll nurse in public but modesty is important to you. You aren't afraid to disagree with your Dr about delaying solids or vaccines. You don't like to let your baby cry and cry-it-out methods make you cringe. However, if nothing else is working you are willing to try it once the baby reaches a certain age. You read different books about parenting and take what you feel will work for you and your family. You tend to believe in trusting your instincts when it comes to raising your kids.
