Gifts for siblings? Has anyone gotten or given in the past, a gift to give to an older sibling when bub is born from the new baby, my friend did it yrs ago for her daughter when she had her son, I got this book to give to my 5yr old son in the hospital when his sister is born, but wanting some ideas of what i can add to it ??
I second the child safe camera, I’m only due with my second in June but I have been told by 3 people that the kids cameras are great so the big sibling can be involved and take pics of the baby. My daughter won’t quite be 2 yet so she may be too young but I imagine a 3-8 year old would really enjoy a their own camera on such a memorable day.
My 5yr old is so excited to meet her he is forever talking to my belly and cuddling it, I'm having him with me in labour room and already spoke to hospital they just said thats fine unless something starts to go wrong then my mum will take him straight out the room, iv told family and friends i will not be making any announcements shes arrived untill im ready and that after shes born and cleaned and put on me then I want at least an hr or 2 with just me and my son and bub so we can bond together. Everyone else can wait as far as I'm concerned i want my son to be first to meet his new sister ?
I just ordered this book and one other for my two boys. I plan to get them big and bigger brother shirts, or make them if I feel up for it. And a small quiet toy, maybe a felt something, they can play with at the hospital when they come to visit. Oh and some snacks, like the Annie’s gummy snacks or something that won’t make a mess. My boys are 3, will be 4 just weeks after my EDD, and 2.5 so pretty easy to please. I know my oldest will be fascinated with his newest brother so I’m not too worried about keeping him entertained but my 2.5 year old is a different story!
Yeah 14 would be harder to think of for something whats the willow tree thing never heard of it ?
My oldest is 14, so a book or coloring book unfortunately won't cut it. I'd like a momento for him though. I've been thinking about those Willow Tree figurines for him to keep as a keepsake from the day his little bro was born. 14 year old boys don't seem too sentimental though, so I don't know what to do...
They had your a big sister one also :) im in aus got it at Kmart for $4, they do have some ones on eBay for $12 though but check your local book store they are super cute
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.

My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️
I think iv decided a small camera is the perfect gift to go with his book thankyou to those who suggested it, iv found some 10.1mp ones for $30 which will be perfect for him and I will get a cheap memory card so he can just fill it up ???
