Kathy,

Reef flip flops are the most comfortable flip flops and all I wear Summer, Spring, Fall and yes, Winter. I get mine from 17th Street Surf Shop.

Meira,

Wow! That sounds so exciting! Congratulations!

I don't know if this will help or not, but we just

went through having our 6 year old get used to having

a new brother in December. (And a 14-year-old and

12-year-old as well.) All I can tell you is what we

did to help her transition her baby brother in.

We let her help as much as possible. When I got

presents and such, I let her open them. (Hard on me,

let me tell you! LOL!) When I got new things for the

baby (we had gotten rid of everything, so I had to go

out and purchase new everything!), I let her open the

boxes and pull out the pieces and I let her " play "

with things if possible. She had a baby doll and she

played with her " baby " in the swing, the port-a-crib

and everything. When we got the boxes in the mail, she

helped carry them in the house. Opened them, and

pulled the parts out and she would kind of play with

the parts as I tried to figure out how to put the

stuff together.

I tried to keep things as consistant as I could for

her. The most convenient place to have had the baby's

car seat is where my daughter sits. But I didn't want

to disrupt her " place " , so I have left her booster

seat where her " spot " is-even though it's harder for

us to get the baby in and out of the car.

I have strived (and this is the hardest) to make sure

she is listened to when she talks-even when I have the

baby in my lap. I try to see to her wants/needs as

quickly as possible so she doesn't think I am putting

the baby over her.

We tried to let her help in any way that she

could-that she expressed in wanting to help with. We

talked about the baby as much as possible. I let her

know what was going to happen (for me, the hospital.

For you the adoption process), and she was the kind

that asked all kinds of questions over and over again.

I let her know ahead of time what was going to happen

as well. I knew I was having a c-section, so I had

explained about being in the hospital, being sore and

everything else. I know you won't go through that, but

any and all information given ahead of time is a big

help. She knew what to expect and could ask questions

if she had any.

Once we got home, we let her interact as much as we

could. Hard with a newborn, but we let her do as much

as possible with him.

I guess the best thing I could tell you would be to

stay consistant as possible, and talk about the new

brother/sister. I also did some mom and me stuff with

my daughter-just her and I going out to lunch. And

then, afterwards, when her brother and sister were

gone somewhere, we sometimes went out with just her

and the baby.

Hope this helps.

congratulations on this exciting news!!! Does still play with baby

dolls? What if you played with her with baby dolls? go shopping with her and

let her pick out real clothes for a baby and practice together putting it on her

baby doll. If she doesn't play with dolls anymore. take her to the store with

you and let her pick out a few toys or clothes for a baby. show her magazines

that have baby furniture and anything related to a new baby. Let her make

choices on what to get. let her be included. also, explain that you are

planning to adopt a brother for your growing family. ask her questions that

will include her like: what do you think he would like to play with? give her

a choice between 2 or 3 things, keep it simple. Include her in being just as

excited as you. Also, don't forget to do something special for her too. Let

her know that you love her so much. (So she doesn't feel left out). Maybe you

can get a matching stuffed toy for her & baby. or

a matching outfit for her and baby? (let her pick it out) Let us know how this

works out. I'm excited for you. best wishes to you and your family....*smile*

That's where you get to meet with social workers who are placing

We adopted an infant when my son with asperger's was 6. We never made it a big

deal for him to " get " . He knew she was coming for only 2 days and when she got

here, he was great. Very nurturing. I guess what I'm saying is that we never

gave him or any of the other kids a reason to think of her coming home with us

was a " big transition " . Life continued - it just continued with another one!!

Good luck!!

When we adopted our daughter, our son was almost 3 and we didn't know about

the AS at the time. We tried preparing him, read books and all that, until he

saw his new sister and walked away, totally disgusted, saying, " I thought she'd

be older! "

He basically ignored her for the first year, kept telling us to bring her

back, but now they are very close. He's 12, she's 9 and she looks out for him.

[Guest guest]

Hi Meira,

My husband and I have been foster parents for 12 years now. We have 4 birth

kids and 3 adopted kids and are in the process of finalizing our 4th

adoption. Our AS son is one of our adopted kids and for the most part he has

done fine with kids coming and going. He was diagnosed at age 9 1/2 finally

so we dealt with issues without knowing what was going on with him

completely but knowing something was different. Anyway, We usually take

infants and he has always adjusted fine to them. We had a 3 year old placed

with us about 18 months ago and it disrupted our household so badly that

after 3 months we had to have him moved. I honestly believed he too was

autistic but also so had a boat load of baggage that a 3 year old shouldn't

have to deal with. But our son could not even begin to adjust to him, he was

so focused on him and what he was doing while he was at school and wondering

if he was in his stuff and since the 3 boys shared a room( our boys are

twins), bedtime also became horrid. They would aggitate each other to death

with their quirks, it was unbelievable. This was the only child ever placed

here that did that to our son. All the babies he has done fairly well with,

He interacts with them for short periods of time and can be really cute with

them just like you would expect any child to be. We have had all our adopted

kids first as foster kids and then adopted and all have come here straight

from the hospital. Our little girl that we have now that we are adopting is

2 1/2 and we have had her since birth too. There is normal sibling stuff

that you expect, she gets his stuff and it drives him nuts. He has sharing

issues and being a little girl she enjoys pushing his buttons. There are

days he says I wish we didn't have her but for the most part he loves her in

his own ways.

Just let her know up front before it happens and keep it a positive thing.

Babies seem easier for our kids to accept and help with. Let her help with

care as much as she wants. Our son has sat and held a baby for short periods

of time with assistance, held the bottle rocked a bouncy chair when they

have fussed, but only when he was in the mood to do it. And when he was he

felt good about it and was pleased that he helped but when he was done that

was it. If we pushed for a little extra then we see that bit of resentment

start to creep in. All in all though he does fine.

So congratulations and best wishes on your new adventure in life.

Sounds like most of the advice has been very positive. Explain as

best as you are able, keep the occasion positive, perhaps have a

little keepsake that the new sibling can give to its older sibling

(doesn't have to be big nor expensive; in our case it was a new Hot

Wheels' car).

I think most kids will go through a bit of an adjustment figuring out

how they still fit in now that mom & dad are being shared, but it

generally does not last long. I remember one of my sons (N/T) was 18

months old when his new brother came along... he knew baby was

growing inside mom's tummy, but when my husband showed up at the

hospital with him to take us all home, my older son would not talk

NOR even look at me. There is a picture with him staring off to the

side rather than into the camera... he was bummed! I let it go and

never made a big deal and within the week I noticed him creep closer

to the baby until one day he went up and kissed him. After that

they've been typical siblings (love-hate relationship, LOL).

As for our son #3 who has a host of ABC's for his diagnosis, he was

perhaps the most accepting of all of new faces in our home... He

loves people and the more the merrier it seems!

And I hope that Arthur plays nice real soon.

Last thing you need after abdo surgery, and the sleepless nights a

Thank you everyone! During the pregnancy I did really well and was

monitored by 4 doctors and lots of blood work, my blood work only

was iffy toward the end.

I also did light yoga, got massages etc to help when I had some

joint pain, because I had maybe 3 issues with swelling and didn't

want to increase my prednisone, or take tylonel 3 for fear of my baby

my arms hurt now, but I think some of that is a flare and lifting a

new baby

here are some photos my sister took

Shirly and Group;

Thank you Shirly. I have prayed already for you. Oh you could handle a

nother one. They are such a blessing. Teenagers are not fun. lol, I

have a 15 year old grandson and he is a hand ful. He is in the 10th

grade and just started back to school from summer vacation. I prayed

for another grandchild. I was hopeing it would be from my other

daughter she never had any kids and she wants one so bad.

I pray Oh Lord that you make Shirly's biopsy benign, I pray heavenly

father that you make her whole, in Jesus name I pray.

I believe in prayer. My mother taught me about prayer. She is a

penticostal minister. My dad passed in 99 he was one to. He is in

paradise now. Mommy is wonderful. I will tell her to pray for my

group when she prays. Mommy will fast and pray and miracles will

happen. I am waiting for my miracle. Mommy is 75 and healed of

everything. She did wait for many years for her healings.

I believe God will not put more on me than I can bare. When daddys

passed I didnt guestion God at all. I was very close to daddy. Dad

told me the bible said it is appointed unto man to die. So I accepted.

Anyway you will be fine. I just pray you will do great. God Bless you

and the group

gentle hugs everyone.

Clora,

Thank you for your support and prayers. I am more scared of it

hurting than the outcome. I truly feel it will be OK.

This has to be the best support group. It seems everyone wants to

reach out and comfort each other. What a blessing to be a part of it.

Shirley, don't worry too much about it hurting, it's nothing compared

to the pain we sometimes feel! For me, the breast MRI was the worst,

I reacted to the dye . . . had trouble breathing, and started shaking.

They had to do it other another day, after I'd taked 40 mg of

prednisone. I've had two biopsies and one lumpectomy, all benign

(Thank you, Lord!), and they do hurt a bit (how much depends on the

type, needle or I forget what they called the other one), and

afterwards you're sore. But really not that bad, I only took one

vicodin a day for a day or two after the worst one.

I've added you to my prayer list, you'll be in my thoughts and

prayers. Let us know how it goes!

Gentle hugs,
