    Time has arrived and I'm expecting a boy in January. A boy!! :eek: Hoping that I won't miss the playoffs if the Texans make it.

    A whole new world is waiting for us and it's scary but exciting at the same time. Am I going to want to kill my hubby in the first few months? lol Any advice is appreciated for us, first time parents! :grin:

    Thanks, guys!

    January 20th...exactly 5 months today. Baby can come anytime before or after, though.

    Having a hard time with picking a name!

    Hope your journey is full of health and joy.

    GET PLENTY OF SLEEP before the little bundle of joy comes. Did you say TWO? Plural? :eek:

    Go for it, man. She can't get pregnant again! :p

    Thank you.

    God, no twins!

    I was referring to my husband and myself.

    You said "Texans" and "Rockets", that's why I thought 2 or more.

    Answering your question:
    Yes. You will attempt murdering Mr. _Di at least TWICE. :eek:

    1. No one is an expert at "raising kids." Everyone's experiences will be different, but principles are the same.
    2. Just because other people have had babies doesn't mean that they are "experienced." They're just parents "before you."
    3. Get an account at www.babycenter.com - this sends you updates on what's happening inside you, how the baby is forming, what to be thinking about, lists, and stuff thereafter.
    4. Don't listen to ima_drummer2k. ;)
    5. "Ojo" exists.
    6. Listen to your mom. You're a reflection.
    7. Listen to your mother-in-law. (I didn't say DO what she says, just listen)
    8. NEVER lose hope if you're getting frustrated... have another baby to perfect your parenting skills!
    9. Understand that, sometimes, your husband and you need a break. Start asking around who can be of help to babysit.
    10. Hispanic?? I can help. :)

    Congrats Lady_Di!

    I have no advice, other than one. Don't name the baby Omer; he might not last much past January.

    Sweet! Ours is February 4th. And you're right, we especially, do not expect to have him that late.

    What are your name options? We had trouble coming up with one as well, till we finally settled on Tyler.
