We it all night last night. (And of course, that should be "mine field" in the Bassinet Derby description. Such soggy thinking is the danger of excessive baby gaming...) Well, I’ve got to tell you — Mucus Madness is addictive. We it all night last night.

But careful! Don't hit anything or you'll wake the baby! Mucus Madness: Clean all the mucus flowing freely from your baby's mouth and nose with a bulb syringe before your baby completely soaks her sleeper. Bonus points for sucking up the bits of milk curd left behind in the corners of the mouth. Colic Countdown: 3-2-1 SCREAM! Find that pacifier before a full blown colic attack sets in and wakes up the whole household! Critical Cry: Respond appropriately to the various cries of hunger, angry, and dirty diaper. But careful: try to feed a baby who's only got a wet diaper and you'll get an eyeful of mystery fluid. Of course there are the obvious: put the diaper on the flailing baby; put the protective mittens on the flailing baby; dress the flailing baby... Well, I'd better be going. I've got a game of Mucus Madness lined up, and I'm determined to get those curd points... A few suggestions for the new parent demographic:
