Just when I was starting to get to the point where my child was starting to learn independance and didn't have to be carried every where, my wife has to go and get herself pregnant again. Just kidding, not about the pregnancy, about the sarcasm. My wife is pregnant again! How did this happen? O.k., I know how it happened, but damn, already? Oh, well, what ya gonna do. I'm happy. Just kinda nervous. This is supposed to be a high risk pregnancy, because of the car accident and the ruptured uterus and all. I hope all goes well, and we have a little girl. I am going to name her Axi dental. Just kidding. She will be Brenia Kaylynn. Unless it's a boy, then he will not be Brenia, he will be something else.
Hey, hooray! Congrats, and all that good stuff! Do you know how far along she is? I'm sure Skye will be a wonderful big brother! Sending lots of happy healthy pregnancy vibes your way...
woohoo congrats to you i hope for a safe and healthy pregnancy for you and your wiife. hugs and congrats again. love FF
CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOU! why are all these people going around getting pregnant again....? I want another baby, too lol But yeah, THAT'S AWSOME!!!!!
We don't know how far along yet, we will find out on the 25th. I am nervous about having another one, for the whole fact that Skye is, for lack of better words, an attention whore. I hope he isn't too jealous. He is used to always getting all the attention from everyone, and now he is going to have to share it. How did this work for all you other parents of multiple children?
How old is Skye? I seem to remember you saying that he's turning one soon? I'm two years older than my little brother and we've been very close all our lives. Shared bedrooms on and off throughout childhood, always played with and confided in each other, etc. Now that we're both grown up and attatched, and living 2000 miles apart, we talk on the phone about 4 times a week! I've seen it work out very well, even in "attention whore" situations. At that age, he'll probably be even more independant and curious, and happy to help with this most interesting of new "toys" (for lack of a better word ) I know it'll all work out for the best - you guys are such wonderful, loving, and attentive parents!
Congrats papa!! Hahahaha...Axi Dental! That is too funny! Skye will be older by the time new baby comes and will understand as you all progress with the pregnancy and new baby at home! Let him know that he is the "big helper" and he will be willing and able to help out with getting a diaper, and lending a helping hand!! I never knew what it was like to have just one child..so far we've had them two at a time!! That is why I am a bit timid to have another pregnancy. Good Luck! And Skye will be a proud big Bro!
My 2 kids are pretty close in age (exactly 2 years) and I found that Danny (my older child) barely noticed that Julian was here. He didn't get jealous at all, because he is still a baby, ya know what I mean? Its hard having 2 babies, but as they get older they will have each other to play with. Oh yea, CONGRATS!!!
Congrats! I love the name Brenia. Did you get it from the A Perfect Circle song? I wanted to name my first daughter Brenia...because of the song LOL
awww how cute! I love hearing about family growings. I want a baby, but i suppose i should wait until I get my degree, which is in two years.
Congrats poppa! My two youngest are 13 months apart so I have some tricks to share with you. Get the big brother a special box of toys, books, coloring pages that he can play with ONLY when momma and pops are busy with the baby (this works especially well when breastfeeding the new one). My one year old actually looked forward to me needing to care to the baby so she could have her special box. Also, the "i'm a big brother" tshirt works wonders, my one year old couldn't get enough of showing her's off and talking all about her baby brother. And every chance you get, spend some special one on one time with the big brother without the baby involved and with very little talk of the baby. Reinforce the concept to him that he's your child all on his own still and NOT being replaced by the new baby. Replacement fears are very real to some kids and nothing but generous amounts of love and one on one attention will ease that. Best of luck to the momma on a safe and healthy pregnancy and congrats to you both!
