    Oh and it really broke my heart to read about those first born children who are ignored when the nes baby arrives, i always try to think of the other kiddies. At a friends baby shower a few months ago i didnt get the mum or baby anything, i bought the 4 year old boy stuff, everyone thought i was wierd....except him and his mum!!
    I agree with u here, and i think what u did was wonderful

    Hi Sunshine, I'm sure people don't mean anything by it other than to express how excited they are for you that you will have a new baby and they want to share that with you and can't wait to meet them I always make sure I ask the mum how they are feeling and chat with them before I even look at the new baby and I pay special attention to older siblings too before going gaga over the baby... In fact a new bub has been coming into work for the past 3 weeks (since birth) and the older sibling is so adorable!!!! It'd be hard to ignore him even if I wanted to cause he's just too beautiful... If people actually do come over to see the new baby and neglect the rest of the family than I think you have something to complain about

    I also don't want any family/friends rocking up at the hospital straight away, I want at least a day to ourselves, maybe 2 or 3 than visitors are welcome, not sure how that will go down but that is the way it will be!
