- Hello Everybody!!!!
-
- My husband and I will be expecting our first child February 18, 1993 (at least
- that's what the doctors say). Anyway, my husband grew up with a little sister
- and he helped take care of her, while I on the other hand, have never had any
- brothers or sisters and know NOTHING about taking care of a baby!!
- Needless to say, I'm scared SILLY!! We start our childbirth classes next
- week,so I guess that's a plus.
-
- I was wondering, if there are any kind souls out there who could give a few
- helpful hints on things like:
-
- Breast-feeding (which I'm still mulling over) versus formula-feeding
- A good time to go back to work (I just graduated and will be hearing about a
- few offers very soon)
- Choosing Day-Care centers
- Rooming-In versus being separated right after birth
- What to do when the baby kicks SOOOOO much, you think she's doing somersaults!!
- And ANYTHING else you can think of!!!!
-
- Believe me, I know NOTHING!!
-
- So...HELP!!!!!!
-
- Thanks a Bunch!!
- Tundrea Newton and Baby Newton
-
- P.S.--We've been told we're having a girl, but you NEVER know!!! :-)
