Don't mind if I do.

Hi! Just thought I’d jump into the fray. My name is Debbie and I’m due on Jan. 8th (Elvis’ birthday, doncha know). I’m married and have four cats. I’m considering just letting them raise the baby. It’s kind of the same thing, right? Obviously, this is my first because I still think I’m going to have the one who never cries and comes out of the womb with a deep understanding of my needs as a mother. A mother who likes to lounge about. It will also like to sleep in and will prefer my musical taste over The Wiggles. I’m deluded and will remain happily so until the very last minute.

I've lurked for a while and really like this forum. There seem to be a lot of smart and funny women about the place. I look forward to learning a lot and feeling reassured that I'm not the only one playing host to what looks remarkably like an alien at this point.

Heyyyy Deb!
Welcome to the world.

I let my guinea pigs take care of the boy but I think I'll have to get a dog to take care of the next one. Two kids to two guinea pigs is just out of balance.

My kid likes MY music over the Wiggles. The Wiggles make him cry, punk rock doesn't. Go figure.

I'm sick as heck today so I can't think of anything more smartmouthed to say. But you'll hear more later. I promise!

hi Deb! Yes, stay in that little world while you can. :LOL

You may have something there with the cats...my dogs are more intelligent than most of the mamas in my neighborhood....maybe they can help with the toddler while I am PG.

Glad you are joining us!!

My DD's due date was Jan 8, 2003 - she held on until the 20th, though.

This time I'm due Jan 7... so we're almost due date buddies

Welcome and good luck!
