Remember how blessed you are! Our littles came to us through adoption, and there are days (who am I kidding? I really mean EVERYDAY) when your responsibilities seem overwhelming and you are too tired too function (I have a 15 month old and a 3 month old!). But for these children we prayed and the joy I receive from being called their mommy far outweigh everything else. <3
if its a boy- point the pee pee down before putting on the diaper- that was the best tip I got after constantly changing sheets- ugh and the other- if they don’t want to sleep- just hold them-youll miss it later

Do what works best for your family. Be nice to yourself you are a new person and never done this before!
let them lead the way as far as new foods, etc!
i dont know yet! i am going to be a first time mom come oct 31st with a little boy i cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow ~ that is a toughie, I guess my best advice for new parents is to follow your instincts. And if I was doing it all over again I would make sure to try and make memories as much as possible, the time flies by!
A poem I embroidered when my nephew was born has always stuck with me and helped me with my own children: “Cleaning and scrubbing can wait til tomorrow, for babies grow up we’ve learned to our sorrow, so quiet down cobwebs, dust go to sleep, I’m rocking my baby and babies don’t keep.
Be patient
Go with your gut !!! Trust your instincts !!!
Don’t listen to everyone’s “good advice”. You will learn what works for you.
sleep when the baby sleeps!
Be patient and do what is best for your family.
Just breath and try to enjoy the little moments, especially with babies because they do grow up way too fast.
Do what you feel is best for your child, not what others tell you to do.
Relax! Go with your guts!
To always let them know that you are there for them and are proud of them always.
Learning great habits and skills are some of the most important things to give a child.
Try to get your kids on a schedule. It will make life easier for the whole family.
Play with your kids!
Always cherish the regular moments with your little ones like… swinging on the playground…having them fall asleep on your chest….Dance Parties. Keep those memories and cherish them….
My advice: go with your gut. Mama’s know their babes, you will do the right thing.
nothing lasts forever- not sleeping through the night or sleeping in your bed,picky eaters, temper tantrums, toilet training its all really just for a short time so be patient
Don’t let the preachy pushy mothers try to make you parent a certain way. Do what works for your own family and don’t let others bring you down if you do it differently.
try to stay as calm as you can in alot of different situations because alot of times the baby can sense that you are upset
Best advice…love your children and support them in all decisions they make later in life
Enjoy every sleep deprived moment, it doesn’t last long!
stay calm,,babies sense when ppl are upset an they will be also
Stand together on the rules

thank you
If you feel overwhelmed..just stop and breathe
just go with the flow and do what you think is best every mother will have their own opinions
Love, patience and understanding

always let them kow you love them
It’s OK to let the baby cry themselves to sleep and it’s never too early to start reading to your baby.
My best advice would be to just try your best and everything will eventually fall into place. When your first child gets older and you have a second child you wonder why you freaked out over the little things so much with the first one.
Sing, your children love your voice more than any other. It will calm them and make them happy!
Take naps when the baby naps – and try to keep one night a week for you – helps keep you sane on those crazy weeks during teething etc
Be patient and pick your battles as they get older.
If it’s your first, nap when the baby naps – especially those first weeks. (Obviously this won’t work for subsequent kids, lol) Also, don’t beat yourself up over trivial mommy war battles – bottle vs breast doesn’t matter as long as your kid is fed, cloth vs disposable doesn’t matter as long as your kid is changed and dry, etc.
To be patient and unconditional love!
Be patient.
Let them be little.
Thanks!
SAVOR every moment and expect the unexpected
When you set a rule, enforce it!
Have patience!
I don’t know yet, I am currently expecting twins!
Remember that every child is different. Don’t compare you or your baby to anyone else. You know more than anyone else what’s best for your baby.
Don’t wish for the next stage, love where you’re at… soak it up because no stage last very long.
This is tough but I would say it’s okay to listen and seek other people’s advice as a new parent but always trust your instincts.

My best advice is to accept help when it’s offered.
Don’t get frustrated or doubt yourself. It’s a learning experience for baby and parents together.
Always treat your child with respect.
Never get too frustrated, take a mommy time-out if you need to! You have to have lots of patience being a parent.
We don’t have a baby yet so I don’t have any advice to offer. When we do have a baby I think I’ll just go with it and hopefully we’ll manage!
Your kids are not little people, they are just short adults. Remember to respect and hear them out as well.
I will have my first in September a baby girl, I have heard that you should try to get some sleep in if you can when baby is asleep!
Best advice is be honest. We are as honest and open as possible with our daughter, we want her to know she can come to us with anything.
Always keep your cool and be as patient as possible!
Enjoy the little things.
Listen to your instincts.
Not sure yet- no baby yet!
Enjoy every minute of everyday because they grow up way to fast and always tell your child you love them and show it!
don’t freak out
I dont have any mommy advice yet. I am due early November, so I am soaking up all the other comments!
Don’t leave them unattended!
dont sweat the small stuff, will drive ya all nuts
Sleep when they sleep!
stockpile when diapers on sale
My best advice is to have fun, and enjoy all of those little moments. It goes by fast!
pray for your children daily!
Trust your instinct and gut when it comes to your child. If you feel something is wrong, don’t let others talk you down. Do what you feel is right in raising your child the correct way. Thanks.

Always trust your instincts. Don’t compare children to other children because they all develop differently.
Take your time, be patient.
Be patient and if you need a moment, step away and just breathe.
My best advice is to put your child’s needs ahead of your wants. Babies tire easily and cannot be on the run from morning until night.
Never let someone tell you that you can spoil an infant.
Love, hug and kiss them as often as you wish. THey will be happier and so will you.
They will grow up faster than you think and those special bonding moments will be lost.
Never be afraid to tell them or show them how very much you love them.

sleep when your baby sleeps
there is no such thing as a stupid question
Buy a swing for the first year! I know parents like to splurge on their children and let their children have all the latest gizmos, but less IS more.
Be a parent, not a best friend.
Enjoy their childhood, they grow up too fast
You’re doing better than you think you are, and I also like trust your instincts.
stay calm
Trust your instinct above all else.
Give your kids a chance to have their say. It will help them feel valued and teach them communication skills and respect.
Don’t sweat the small stuff.
Dont let anyone tell you how to raise your kids.
Enjoy every stage of development even the not so fun ones because each stage goes by so fast!
don’t get to upset about the small stuff
Cut yourself some slack. Things won’t be perfect but sometimes it’s more important to just slow down, smile and enjoy the time.
Love your kids

go with your heart in every decision you make
Just relax!
Make your children your main priority
Best tip I received is that my family’s health, happiness and safety is priority number one… everything else is secondary.
The best tip was from my mom; she told me to let go of the small stuff.
I’m not a parent yet.
My best piece of advice is to trust your own judgement and don’t worry about what anyone is doing with their children as you know your children better than anyone else.
