Btw, best advice I never followed was to use a cassette recorder (although you could do digital) and recover a few minutes of the baby’s noises weekly. Their noises change every week and develop so quickly. The recordings serve two purposes: 1) a memory for you and 2) a good twenty minutes of babysitting when the child is about 2 by slapping the tape into one of those Preskool cassette players. They love listening to themselves!

Not to laugh at your misfortune, but a good LOL nonetheless. Shared it with my wife, who is pregnant with our first.
