MOTHERS ROCKING COMMENTS
I was most interested to read all the comments from the MOTHERS ROCK post. So many mothers shared how instinctive it is to them. Here's just a few comments in case you missed them:
"A few months ago I ran to the store to get a few things alone which is rare for me. Standing in line I realized I was bouncing a ten pound bag of potatoes without thinking! On the plus side, at least I realized it before I started humming!"
"I do too!! I rock the shopping cart or even the basket while waiting in line. Sometimes I'm just rocking with nothing in my hands! So glad I'm not the only one!"
"I'm a grandmother and I still rock."
"I noticed I was doing this yesterday behind a woman holding a baby. It made me laugh when I caught myself."
"My youngest is 24. I often find if I am in a queue at a supermarket, I am gently rocking the trolley forward and back."
"As I sit in the balcony at church it's fun to watch women start rocking when a baby cries."
"I'm 63 and my youngest grand child is turning 11. I rock when standing in line at the bank or grocery store. That instinct never wan"
"All the time! My husband just laughs and says "Oh you are such a mom!" It's just like breathing."
"I go food shopping alone sometimes and when holding my groceries in my arms I notice I am rocking my food!"
"When standing and waiting you can always tell who the mothers are....they sway."
At checkout, a gentleman asked me if I was a mom. I said, yes, why? He had observed me rocking my grocery cart with no baby in sight."
