Good advice!
This was our first ER trip. I think we probably do act more like parents who have multiple kids, just from what we learned about parenting beforehand and how we decided to approach it.
Still, the lesson was to be even more chill than we already tend to be.
One of our best friends who has three older kids was a big influence. She would always say "I don't know any adults who [crawl, wear diapers, drink from a bottle, can't talk, etc.], so she'll probably figure it out."

Your friend is very wise and it's good she is willing to share with you her wisdom. I've seen so many friends and family who are worried about their kid being "slow" in their development. But eventually, all the kids figured it out and are all thriving.

My inclination was to think the way she does, anyway, but it's nice to get the confirmation from someone who went through it.

Yea, it's tricky. Especially when they seem to be in distress. But each kid is different, and the more you spend time with them and have experience with them, the better you can tell if it's the real deal or just shenanigans.
