This darn doe bit the baby's tail and now she has no hair on part od it and has a big sore there. This all worked out last night tho. This one nanny had a baby about 5 days ago and lost it.She has been crying around almost ever since. I told Lyman we should try giving this little baby now 3 days old to this nanny. He thought I was crazy! He told me that will NEVER work. Well I was determined so he went and got her out of the pen and I gave her the baby. She sniffed a little, the baby tried to suck and she jumped. I held her and pretty soon she was sqauting so the baby could suck and was licking it and all the mommy stuff. Now is this a Great Mom or what? Lyman was about in shock. All he could say is I'll be damned. Didn't think you'd pull that one off! But we moms know these things don't we? LOL
