Below you'll find one of the very few opened forwards I received.....I've found quite hilarious, because some of it is quite relative! Check it out.......Cheryl...you'll probably get it with me ;)
Your Clothes:
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. ( AMEN TO THAT!!!!!)
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.
3rd 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: Just 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 (a favorite):
1st child: When first child swallows a coin, you rush the child to the
hospital & 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!!
Pass this on to everyone you know who has children...
or everyone who KNOWS someone who has had children...
(The older the mother, the funnier this is!
