Guest guest Posted August 23, 2001 Report Share Posted August 23, 2001 > another boy! Well done Caroline, at least the brothers will have each other; Yeshaya has never really forgiven me for the way my boys were spaced out so he didn't have a brother close in age.

Guest guest Posted August 23, 2001 Report Share Posted August 23, 2001 Congratulations Caroline ;o) they will have fun together and you can get away with telling them all how sensitive they have to be with you when they are older ;o) Phoebe is adamant that I am having a baby boy to lol if we say the baby in mummy's tummy she says NO THE BOY!!!... lol very cute (I think it is a girl though lol) Lonnie Phoebe & Eloisa's mama & expecting a Christmas delivery... My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what you start. So far today, I have finished 2 bags of chips and a Chocolate cake. I feel better already.

It was just that he kept asking me why I didn't have another baby so he wouldn't be the youngest, and there was nothing I could say.

Guest guest Posted August 23, 2001 Report Share Posted August 23, 2001 Sorry, Ruthie, for being insensitive about your hysterectomy. I was thinking more along the lines of Yeshaya having *sisters* near him in age. As the youngest of four, I never ever wondered about my parents having children after me (I suppose once you pass through the self-centred part of early childhood, you enter the adolescent abhorrance of parental sex, LOL) , although it would have been nice to have a sister close to me, rather than 10 years older. Just think though, if Yeshaya did have a younger brother, he'd just be starting his GCSE courses and think what you'd have to look forward to!

Guest guest Posted August 24, 2001 Report Share Posted August 24, 2001 > Sorry, Ruthie, for being insensitive about your hysterectomy. I was > thinking more along the lines of Yeshaya having *sisters* near him in age. I'm not touchy about my hysterectomy. I just feel a bit bad for my 3 boys (2 surviving) as they were so badly placed amongst all the girls (placed second, fifth, and eighth of the 8 kids). 6 yrs between DS1 and DS2, and 9 yrs between the second and third boy. No chance for real brotherly bonding when they were young, and now with Uri gone, and Azariah estranged from the family ( Yeshaya really doesn't have a brother he can relate to. Luckily he has fantastic social skills and is extremely popular with his friends. My other two boys never had a tenth of the number of friends he has. > As the youngest of four, I never ever wondered about my parents having > children after me (I suppose once you pass through the self-centred part of > early childhood, you enter the adolescent abhorrance of parental sex, LOL) > , although it would have been nice to have a sister close to me, rather > than 10 years older. > > Just think though, if Yeshaya did have a younger brother, he'd just be > starting his GCSE courses and think what you'd have to look forward to! > > J Indeed!
