After @Featherbelle and I had three RL ones of our own. I think I'll stick to 1 day and age up the babies. I've had enough with changing diapers and 2AM feedings while half asleep and trying not to fall over.
You do get the option of reliving that in small doses at some point when you become a grandparent. Or in larger doses perhaps, like my poor grandparents and one great grandparent did when suddenly a bundle of joy (me) was left for them to raise and take care of. Although by that time I was taking my meals in a high chair, from all accounts. I don't remember very much of this now, but I do remember the high chair and transitioning from a crib to my first bed, and it was all in their house.
Probably had a playpen, but don't think I ever had a baby swing. They existed but may not have been in popular usage back then. I know we didn't have car seats/restraints, kids back then were tossed into the back of a station wagon or the equivalent with cigarette ads blaring on the radio and the best of all possible outcomes was just hoped for. Now I wonder if an elder's supposed affinity for rocking chairs comes from some subconscious longing for the baby swing they once or maybe never had.

@igazor. I don't think I'm far behind you on that account. Trust me, I think I'm starting to get as grumpy as you are. Though of course, my irritability could be due to my arthritis.
Sorry to hear of your arthritis, but I never said I was grumpy. I said that I didn't expect to wake up on a particular birthday and suddenly by definition be grumpier. Just who do you think you are, anyway? You young people and your age-based stereotypes, I tell you...oh, wait a minute. Ah, never mind. o:) :p
