The first stage I will cover is Trust versus Mistrust this is throughout infancy, so when you are first born and until eighteen months. It is essential that a child successfully passes this stage because it reflects onto the future stages. I was born on November 3, 1996 in Hagerstown, Maryland at the Washington county hospital, where all of my siblings were born. I was the smallest of all of my siblings and weighed eight pounds and four ounces. My parents helped me move through this stage by attending to my needs. I was a very stressful baby because all I would do is cry. I loved the Binky and it worked to my parent’s advantage because it would keep me from crying. However, at my own home, I would continuously cry and fuss, but the moment I went out in public I would hardly cry. As I was reading in one of the journals one of the leading causes of babies crying is because lack of breast milk and most parents go seek a lot of health care providers to find guidance that will assist them with this issue: (Douglas, 2015). I stopped breast feeding around two months because I was very colicky and stopped when I switched over to formula it really made a difference for me. Three months I was put into day care with my older sister, the days when daycare was closed my grandparents would watch us.
