    The birth order of children

    Sorry if this has been posted before but I thought it was cute.

    BIRTH ORDER OF CHILDREN
    1st baby: You begin wearing maternity clothes as soon as your OB/GYN confirms your pregnancy.
    2nd baby: You wear your regular clothes for as long as possible.
    3rd baby: Your maternity clothes ARE your regular clothes.
    __________________________________________________ ___
    Preparing for the Birth:
    1st baby: You practice your breathing religiously.
    2nd baby: You don't bother because you remember that last time, breathing didn't do a thing.
    3rd baby: You ask for an epidural in your eighth month.
    ________________________________________________
    The Layette:
    1st baby: You pre-wash newborn's clothes, color-coordinate them, and fold them neatly in the baby 's little bureau.
    2nd baby: You check to make sure that the clothes are clean and discard only the ones with the darkest stains.
    3rd baby: Boys can wear pink, can't they?
    __________________________________________________ ____
    Worries:
    1st baby: At the first sign of distress--a whimper, a frown--you pick up the baby.
    2nd baby: You pick the baby up when her wails threaten to wake your firstborn.
    3rd baby: You teach your three-year-old how to rewind the mechanical swing.
    __________________________________________________ ____
    Pacifier:
    1st baby: If the pacifier falls on the floor, you put it away until you can go home and wash and boil it.
    2nd baby: When the pacifier falls on the floor, you squirt it off with some juice from the baby's bottle.
    3rd baby: You wipe it off on your shirt and pop it back in.
    ________________________________________________
    Diapering:
    1st baby: You change your baby's diapers every hour, whether they need it or not.
    2nd baby: You change their diaper every two to three hours, if needed.
    3rd baby: You try to change their diaper before others start to complain about the smell or you see it sagging to their knees.
    ____________________________________
    Activities:
    1st baby: You take your infant to Baby Gymnastics, Baby Swing, and Baby Story Hour.
    2nd baby: You take your infant to Baby Gymnastics.
    3 rd baby: You take your infant to the supermarket and the dry cleaner.
    __________________________________________________ ____
    Going Out:
    1st baby: The first time you leave your baby with a sitter, you call home five times.
    2nd baby : Ju st before you walk out the door, you remember to leave a number where you can be reached.
    3rd baby: You leave instructions for the sitter to call only if she sees blood.
    ________________________________________
    At Home:
    1st baby : You spend a good bit of every day just gazing at the baby.
    2nd baby: You spend a bit of everyday watching to be sure your older child isn't squeezing, poking, or hitting the baby
    3rd baby: You spend a little bit of every day hiding from the children.
    __________________________________________________ ____
    Swallowing Coins:
    1st child: When first child swallows a coin, you rush the child to the hospital and demand x-rays.
    2nd child: When second child swallows a coin, you carefully watch for the coin to pass.
    3rd child: When third child swallows a coin, you deduct it from his allowance!

    LOL that is funny.....

    but I must admit.. being a first time mom I am very guilty of mostly "2nd child" reactions... a few 3rd child reactions and only 1 1st child reaction lol.

    the 1 1st child reaction is staring at her all day. I can't look at her enough lol. I miss her so much when she is in bed all night that I can't wait to see her in the morning lol. but other than that I am definitely more of a "2nd child reactor" lol




    R.I.P my dear Sweet Teddy. You will be missed forever. We love you.
