Just so you and everyone is aware, we had a pediatric nurse practioner who also works in an NICU off camera watching the whole thing and had no such comments. She was enjoying Deacon's laughter as much as we were.

You have the right to put whatever you want on this diary, but remember, once you do, it is out there for all the world to see. <BR/>Now, thankfully, you have just finished those wonderful classes on how to deal with confrontation and accepting confrontation, because I'm afraid that you aren't going to like what I'm about to tell you. (Mind you, I'm trying to put this in a loving way), but throwing "D" around is VERY dangerous! A toddler's neck muscles aren't well developed and provide little support for their heads. (As evidenced in the second video when you see his head jerk back.) The violent movement of his head being jerked back in a "whiplash" pitches the infant's brain back and forth within the skull, potentially rupturing blood vessels and nerves throughout the brain and possibly tearing the brain tissue. The whiplash effect causes the brain to strike the inside of the skull, causing bruising and bleeding to the brain. Basically, with repeated movements like these, his brain bounces back and forth in his head, causing permanent head injury. It doesn't take much to rupture those fragile brain cells and blood vessels! Please, please don't do this to either of your children!!! If you don't believe me, please google shaken baby syndrome yourselves. Now, I may receive some grief from your other readers, but it is worth it to me. To whom it may concern, I am a NICU nurse with 16 years of experience. I have many PICU RN friends. If you have seen what I've seen...<BR/>Susan M.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
