YOUR
EDITOR'S MONTHLY POLL
In honor of Mother's Day, the McCarty Metro realizes that
becoming a mom changes everything. But motherhood also changes
with each baby. Here, some of the ways having a second and third
child differs from having your first:
Your Clothes -
1st baby: You begin wearing maternity clothes as soon as your
OB/GYN confirms your pregnancy.
2nd baby: You wear your regular clothes for as long as possible.
3rd baby: Your maternity clothes are your regular clothes.
.
The Baby's Name -
1st baby: You pore over baby-name books and practice pronouncing
and writing combinations of all your favorites.
2nd baby: Someone has to name their kid after your great-aunt
Mavis, right? It might as well be you.
3rd baby: You open a name book, close your eyes, and see where
your finger falls. Bimaldo? Perfect!
.
Preparing for the Birth -
1st baby: You practice your breathing religiously.
2nd baby: You don't bother practicing because you remember that
last time, breathing didn't do a thing.
3rd baby: You ask for an epidural in your 8th month.
.
The Layette -
1st baby: You prewash your newborn's clothes, color-coordinate
them, and fold them neatly in the baby's little bureau.
2nd baby: You check to make sure that the clothes are clean and
discard only the ones with the darkest stains.
3rd baby: Boys can wear pink, can't they?
.
Worries -
1st baby: At the first sign of distress - a whimper, a
frown - you pick up the baby.
2nd baby: You pick the baby up when her wails threaten
to wake your firstborn.
3rd baby: You teach your 3-year-old how to rewind the
mechanical swing.
.
Activities -
1st baby: You take your infant to Baby Gymnastics, Baby
Swing, and Baby Story Hour.
2nd baby: You take your infant to Baby Gymnastics.
3rd baby: You take your infant to the supermarket and
the dry cleaner.
.
Going Out -
1st baby: The first time you leave your baby with a
sitter, you call home 5 times.
2nd baby: Just before you walk out the door, you
remember to leave a number where you can be reached.
3rd baby: You leave instructions for the sitter to call
only if she sees blood.
.
At Home -
1st baby: You
spend a good bit of every day just gazing at the baby.
2nd baby: You spend a bit of every day watching to be
sure your older child isn't squeezing, poking, or
hitting the baby.
3rd baby: You spend a little bit of every day hiding
from the children.
