Congrats on your 2nd baby, and trust that God will grant you a good pregnancy, like he did the 1st. Reading your gave me a different perspective of getting pregnant and giving birth, and certainly an assuring one that it's not that bad as it might have seemed based on others' experience and stories. Indeed, there is a difference when God has a hand in everything for the entire time. God would never fail to give us strength and courage when we need them most. You take good care ya, and yes, keep updating us on your progress :) Say hi to Pete. <strong>Joyce says: Thanks Cheryl. You take care too.</strong> Hey Joyce,

Although they used pink... mistake ka? <strong>Joyce says: Thanks! No la, all babies, regardless of gender, get a pink swaddle in the hospital I delivered in. Come to think of it, they should use something neutral, like white, huh?</strong> what a lovely story! and ethan looks so serene in the photo where he’s brand new and swaddled.

I did some research, here are some tips..... I just delivered my twins on 23/8, some of these tips actually do work. - a young child should definitely be part of the reception committee, before any other family members or friends arrive - the mother have someone other than herself carry the baby into the house and she devote herself to the older child exclusively for a short time after coming home - the child should accompany the father to the hospital to pick up mother and infant - give the older child one large present to celebrate the birth of the new brother or sister, choosing one that emphasizes his or her maturity, such as a new game or some more sophisticated art materials - to help yourself feel better and to make your older child feel wanted is to include him or her in every possible part of the care of the baby. Even a two year old can fetch a diaper from upstairs, perch on a stool beside you at the dressing table, or help you pat the baby dry after a bath. Little kids can sort the baby's laundry, help you gently pat up a burp after a feeding, and entertain the baby with nursery songs and finger plays. <strong>Joyce says: Thanks for the well-thought-out tips! I will be putting them into practice :)</strong> Congrats to you…
