Taylor will get shaky when she first wakes up from a nap or sleep. Especially if I wake her up and immediately bring her downstairs. But, if she wakes up on her own, and can lay in her bed for a moment, this doesn't happen. She's been this way since she was a little baby. She's just slow to wake...

I have had not so good experiences when giving birth. This is our last baby now, due in 5 weeks. Have you tried HypnoBirthing?
