Rach, DD2 didn't understand that one day she was my baby & then the next thing I had a new baby. She was a similar age to what Hudson will be. I tried explaining it to DD2 that a new baby was coming but she didn't have a clue. I was devastated in hospital when DH & my mum bought the girls to visit & DD2 didn't want a bar of me at all in hospital. She wouldn't hug or kiss me, or come near me. She was such a mummy's girl, I think being in hospital with the epidural drip in freaked her out a bit but as soon as i arrived home she was back to her usual self & was all over me again. I reckon you're having a girl....even though I know you won't tell me lol. You had a c/s with Hudson hey? Are you going to try for a vbac or have another c/s? All 3 of my kids were born via c/s, but I didn't have a choice coz of my uterus. We're getting Lexie christened & then having her 1st bday party straight after the christening. We're getting her christened incase we want to send the girls to a private school, most of the private schools up here require kids to be christened. In regards to a cake, I am getting it made, not sure what kind yet, most likely chocolate, but not sure about shape etc.
