How did you change when you became a mother?

Q. unfortunately, I am pretty selfish. I fear that my maternal instincts wont kick in or something!!! Are there any former selfish women out there that changed when the baby arrived, if so please give me details. I would love to hear your stories.


I am 18 wks pregnant, I love to travel, shop, treat myself to spas, spend like crazy, spoil myself with electronic gadgets like the most current car to come out, current phones and new DVD blue ray (stuff like that).

A. Well on the up side, someone new to shop for! If you have people to watch your baby sometimes then it prob wont be so bad. If it is just you and only you 24/7 then you are in for a rude awakening. I loved to shop, I called it a sport, one I was damn good at! WIth just one kid I think you can still travel and do some stuff just bring them along. You prob wont have time or the interest to get the newest stuff. I still havent the time how to work the ipod I got two years ago!! I still consider myself a bit selfish but the kids come first always no matter what and it is kinda automatic. I didn't fall madly in love with the girls when they were born, it took a little time for me to get to know them and then oh boy, I am in love with them. I did however fall in love with my son from the minute I saw him. He is blissfull.
Don't worry you will be fine. It sounds like you have enough money to get help if you need it. Start looking for help now it is hard to find a babysitter or nanny you can trust.
Good luck and enjoy the ride!!!!


For health reasons, should parents buy their children more outdoor toys and less electronic toys and Gadgets?
Q. Should parents make their children get away from their TV's , computers, and electronic games and make them spend a certain amount of time outside day actually physically playing or working?

A. How about like they did in the old days, give them NO toys

"Go outside and push a hoop with a stick or something"

People had to be creative while playing a while ago, now everything is done for the kids, no wonder they're so stupid.


What electronic gadget out there will work?
Q. Hey, My daughter wants a laptop, My son (8yr old) wants an IPOD, I can't afford this stuff. But I was curious to know with all these new "tablets" out there and stuff would there be something they might like, I mean as long as they can access internet, play music and videos and surf the net.....that would be great, I know some of these new reader things allow you to read online books, but is that it?....Help....any suggestions, and if I could find something cheap that also works that would be great.

A. Try this site
http://www.bluemusa.com

they have a lot of cool gadgets and many things for kids, you'll love that site.

let me know, how it was.
