Birth Order Of Children...

A friend of mine send me this funny but true calculations...I thought of sharing it with you :)

  • Your Own Dressing:
    1st baby: You begin wearing maternity clothes as soon as your doctor 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.
  • 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.
  • Dummy :

  • 1st baby: If the dummy falls on the floor, you put it away until you can go home and wash and boil it.
    2nd baby: When the dummy 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.
  • Nappies :
    1st baby: You change your baby's nappy every hour, whether they need it or not.
    2nd baby: You change their nappy every two to three hours, if needed.
    3rd baby: You try to change their nappy 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:
    1st child: When first child swallows a coin, you rush the child to the hospital and 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 pocket money.

    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!)

    GRANDCHILDREN: God's reward for allowing your children to live

    I'm still pregnant with the first, but I'd say I act more like I'm on number 2.

    No ghazals, you should add two more for that. I was thinking of the sagging nappies and the wiping with shirts.
