Just generally asking how are the new inclusions?

I know there were a few bundles of joy that popped up around here.

Re: FAO: All Parents With New Born's.
i guess sleep is a big issue huh
Re: FAO: All Parents With New Born's.
From my experience (my baby is 4 months now), it is my opinion that I probably will never sleep the same again. I've brought a human being into this world that we are responsible for. That kind of responsibility is so great that a part of me is always thinking about him, even when I sleep :).
When I was a baby I started sleeping through the night at 2 months old, that's uncommon, but I was a big baby. The bigger the baby at birth, usually the better they sleep through the night.
My wife and I work it out like this. I have the baby from 9pm - 2:30am. She goes to bed at 9pm. She has the baby from 2:30am - 7:30am. I have the baby most of the day since I work from home, until she gets home at 6:00pm. This week is the first week since we've had our baby that she doesn't have homework. She just finished her MBA :). I'm thankful she will get to help more from 6:00pm - 9:30pm.
Lastly, I recommend buying a video monitor, it's been just the right thing for us. Our baby sleeps in his crib, we keep the video monitor on, we know when he needs to be fed and can watch him whenever we hear him moving around (before he starts crying).

It is the best. Having another in February.
Florida it gets a lot better. Once the baby starts sleeping through the night it makes it easier on everyone.
Re: FAO: All Parents With New Born's.
^I'm not complaining, my sister has 1 yr old twin girls. She is lucky (literally) if she sleeps 4 hours at night. I avg 6 - 7, and catch up on the weekend. Our baby will be a walk in the park compared to hers, pretty much for a long long time.
Re: FAO: All Parents With New Born's.
Congrats to all of you! 1st one is soon to be 2 years old - love every seconds of it, and yes, sleep is absent in the first few months The second one is due for January
Re: FAO: All Parents With New Born's.
have a 2 year old boy and a baby boy due in December. We have just learned that the baby will be born without a left hand. Talk about devastation but we will love just as much as our 2 yr old despite the challenges ahead. We both are looking forward to the new baby.
Re: FAO: All Parents With New Born's.
Jay, I'm sure he'll be fine. We all just saw a guy with no legs competing in the olympics. Good luck man, I still randomly think of the days we had in Miami. :)
Re: FAO: All Parents With New Born's.
Have 2 of the little nippers - life is great
Sleep has been totally harpooned but you learn to live with it.
Re: FAO: All Parents With New Born's.
Jay sorry to hear about your boy due in December. It will obviously be very hard at first but with anything it gets better as time progresses. I have a cousin who was born with both ears deaf. That was hard and you cannot imagine the difficulties his parents went through. He is now 12 and about to go to high school next year. Just amazed how well he's grown and how much he has achieved in his life.

Re: FAO: All Parents With New Born's.

Re: FAO: All Parents With New Born's.
i remember they did for my first son, i dont remember if they have this time around. would it make a difference?
Miguel! i def have to hit you up next time im in miami, youve been missed the last couple of years lol.
Re: FAO: All Parents With New Born's.
bro ... you can enroll anytime before labor, and the cord blood is also good for siblings .... its an option that you need to consider .... we never know what science will be able to do next ....
P.M. me
