OFFICIAL QUIZ: How breezy is your parenting?

[redheadk]

I scored 69 out of 100, I am tropical storm breezy. Lol.

I kind of think that anyone who participates on a parenting message board should add 2 points to their own self selected breezy score.

[Brie]

62!

I guessed 6/10 yesterday so boom. Accurate.

[scribellesam]

Tropical Storm Breezy here also. I got 65.

[Mimi]

51

[fbf2006]

I got 59:
B | Tropical Storm Breezy

"Who cares? Why are you people worrying about that anyway?"

[Deleted]

64, I'm breezy!

[okc]

I got a 58.

[humpforfree]

49. Just about right

[soozy87]

47

[rupertpenny]

I got 77. My kid is lucky to be alive apparently.

[SallySparrow]

35. Which seems reasonable. I did say yesterday that I never feel breezy.

[KKD]

Well done, @this!

I scored 70. I had rated myself an 8, maybe a 7, so pretty accurate. I'll take it.

[timorousbeastie]

I got 38 - the unbreeziest of unbreezy. I said 3 yesterday, but I was debating a 4, so I'd say this is pretty accurate.

Also, "I am Megan Heimer"?   (For the record, I am the anti-Megan Heimer, but that is just killing me!)

[atarianna]

35 but labeled as not breezy. I think I am on the line between A and B.

[Ashley&Scott]

57 - tropical storm breezy

[ECB]

50. But some of those questions were about babies. I answered based on what I did at the time, but some of it isn't applicable to what I do now. I know my breeziness has changed as he gets older.

[purplecow0206]

I have NO IDEA what I am on the scale of unbreezy-breezy, so I took the quiz to see where I fall. I got a 45, so "The Unbreeziest of Unbreezy".

I can see me getting breezier as A gets older, though. For instance, since she's still eating mostly jarred food, I'm going organic with the jars, simply because they were on sale, but we'll see where her food is as she gets older and realizes that people are eating stuff other than purees and the occasional blueberry or other finger food to practice self-feeding.


And if I'm about a 4 or 5, my H must be a 2. He freaks out whenever she's pulled herself up on furniture because he's sure she'll fall and hurt herself. Me, I'm all "meh, if she falls, she falls, she's fine..."

I tried to do BLW but B did not understand it. Would that have made me more or less breezy?

[shelbyann]

59. I am breezy, but just barely.

[cincodemayo]

56. I expected it to be higher.

[kershnic]

56. But I make shit up since my kids aren't mobile and are ebf. Solids and crawling may reduce my anticipated breeze.

Daycare seems to think my dislike for baby socks is breezy.

[Deleted]

67.

Which sounds about right.

[kategm]

52

But as someone mentioned yesterday, my kid is less than a year old. I guarantee I will be the exact opposite of breezy when the time comes. It's just not in my personality to be anything else. Any non-breeziness will be a forced effort so as to not turn into my mother.

Yes

The opposite being cutting grapes for 8yos. lol

See but I don't think BLW people are breezy. Maybe they aren't as worried about choking, but they usually read stuff and actually think about how to feed their kids rather than just doing it the way the majority of people do it.

Most BLW people do it because purees looks like too much work.

[water*drop]

55. I gave myself a 3 yesterday. I don't feel breezy.

I wasn't sure what to pick for parenting books, though. What if I own a lot but only read the first chapter of them? I figured that averaged to reading a handful? Maybe I should have picked the thesis option.

[docholly]

48... I thought I was more breezy. :-(

[babyrn]

I got 50 so I guess I am perfectly average, lol. I feel like I am less breezy than that though.

What work? Open pouch, squeeze into mouth.

Baby needs to squeeze into own mouth.

Also, I'm too cheap for pouches.

oh my gosh, me too. It's a million degrees outside here so I don't put socks on my baby for the car ride to daycare. Every.single.morning. the first thing out of her teacher's mouth is, "How is M? Oh, where are your socks???" sigh.
