Caring For Newborn Babies For Dummies

February 5th, 2008 Posted in Funny Stuff

Now that we have a newborn in the house (our first grandson), I’m finding myself having to brush up a bit on how to properly care for him. Even though we have raised three children, it has been what seems like a lifetime since they were infants.

Therefore I found a humorous look at this – what I’d call “how to care for babies for dummies” – represented in the 26 cartoons shown below. I am not sure who created them, but I found them at FunCollector.com. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did and maybe you’ll even learn a thing or two. ;)

    Some of these were really graphic — but, I have to admit made me laugh to myself — I am at the library and I couldn’t laugh out loud. I loved it. thanks for sharing. Love Aunt Jean

    This made me laugh! I think we need guidelines like these because I can see some people actually doing the “don’ts”! There are definitely a lot of “dummies” having babies out there!!
