My brother likes to steer with his knee. Perhaps this creative Mommy was using her newborn as sort of a pillow, you know? Like, she would have steered with her knee but there was this infant in the way, so she clamped the baby against the steering wheel with her knee, steered, held the baby with one arm and the cell phone with the other.

I think they should check the baby for steering wheel marks.

> No, no. You use duct tape to avoid paying a nanny or baby sitter. Nursing requires shifting the baby from one nipple to the other in a short period of time. It would take more time to tape than to adjust positions.

What about Post-It Notes[sup]tm[/sup] ?
