When you have a baby everyone has advice on how to bring up your child and what to do. If the advice isnt welcome smile and ignore it. The only way to bring up a child is the way you want to.


Ok my advice to your brother %26amp; his wife is get all the relatives to help out with housework cooking etc while they get to know the new arrival and get some rest. Sleepless nights can really take its toll on new parents. Stock up on all the essentials baby needs and order online nappies and other bulky items. Enjoy every precious moment with baby and hope everything goes well xBest advice for brand-new parents to be? My Brother and his wife are due anyday now..And this is baby # 1 for?
BE PREPARED


EVERYTHING SHOULD BE READY-BABY CLOTHES, NAPKINS, SOAPS ,TOWEL ,BLANKETS, SHEETS etc. EVEYTHING OF BABY
Get baby into a good sleeping routine straight away. Stay with the breastfeeding because it gets lots easier. Offer baby a bottle of formula before 3 weeks %26amp; continue to offer it regularly (every 2 days) so that the baby gets used to a bottle if mum wants a night out or has to go back to work. It's a godsend when your breastfed baby will also take a bottle.
have confidence in yourself and dont be afraid or guilty about getting help/rest. you will be a better parent if you listen to your gut and even when you are new, no one knows your child better than you do! LOVE AND Luck!
Purchase diapers in bulk with free shipping from amazon. They also have many sales where you get 3 boxes get $30 off.





(hey they kid will use them!!!)
the best and only advice i ever give to new parents is to wrap their babys till their to old to wrap.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and dont listen to this gabbage about them not liking it .


bubby is use to being in a buddle in the womb thats how they feel safe. if youv ever watch a baby sleep they jump and this alot of the time wakes babys up esspialy around the 45 min mark. if the babys wrapt this helps to not wake them and if they wake up at the 45 min mark ( witch is normal is part of the sleep cycle) they go into a different type of sleep but if you get them past that they will go back into a deeper more restfull sleep. try and pat them back off to sleep youll be teaching them to sleep in a two or three hours sleep cycle( witch is what a healthy growing baby needs) rather than cat napping. baby and mum will be more rested and all will be happier. it does have a name but i cant rember it rem sleep and deep sleep and dream sleep i really cant rember but i no it works from experienc.


the best wraps i used were cheese cloth .i went to spot light and bought a meter of it then hemed the edges and it lasted untill they were around one. at first its huge but you can double wrap them .


the other thing is get the number for karatany (spelling is wrong i think) or tracillian keep them on sped dial . when i had my first i called them all the time 24 hrs a day they were wonderful . if she is going to brest feed, again get the number for the nurseing mothers . they were a god sent to me with my first.


just tell them to relax and enjoy they want break bubby and their is no real right or wrong way to do things as long as their happy they will no whats best for their own child . i wish them all the best their is nothing like your first baby its the best thing in the world
The best advice is to do your best. There is no formula for being a good parent. Just make sure you wake up when you need to with the baby. Take the baby to all his/her doctors appointments. Keep the baby clean. And love the hell out of the baby.





At first caring for a baby is hard work, but there will be a period between the time the baby can hold a bottle and before it can crawl that will be the easiest time for parents. You will get a great rest during this period. You'll need it because once the baby can start walking you're going to have to chase it all the time.





I'm a single parent and I've found it to me much easier than the hype. There's nothing laborsome about taking care of someone you love. There hasn't been a day that has gone by that I didn't enjoy being a father.
The best advice I can give is make sure she has everything she needs packed up and ready to go and DONT forget the carseat :) baby clothes (bring a couple different size outfits) and try to remember the baby comes when they finally get ready...so if she goes over 1 week its okay and just try to relax as much as possible at this stage.





When the baby gets home they need to let others know that its going to be a big adjustment and they really dont have time to entertain visitors very much. They are going to be focused on getting everyone in a routine. Its going to be sleepless nights and many new adventures for them. Its a wonderful blessing that does have a few tough roads some days and nights. If friends and family ask what they can do tell them food is a wonderful blessing right now :)





Congrats and enjoy the new sweetie! Hope she has a wonderful delivery!
Be prepared to make sacrifices!!!!!!!!!!!! Small and big!! And just cause things worked for your friend's, family, etc, does not always mean they will work for you. Find ways that work for you and your child. And remember to support each other as new parents, you both made the baby, you both pay for the baby, you both change the baby! Work together as a team and it could go easier. Keep your cool! Babies can feel tension too!
Sleep as much as you can, and spend as much alone time with each other as you can now, because once the baby comes you won't have much time to sleep or spend with each other once the baby arrives!





Have everything packed and ready to go to the hospital, because once you start to go into labor, your might not have time to gather things together, or feel good enough to do so. Something I wish I would have done ahead of time was get more diapers. You go through them quicker than you would think! Stock up, so you don't have to go out after you have the baby (you will be sore, no matter which way you have the baby.) Also, stock up on pads (you can't use tampons for 6 weeks after birth) and the ones they give you in the hospital don't have an sticky side to stick to your underwear, so they slide around.





Don't get an episiotomy unless you need to! They hurt like hell to heal! I gave birth 2 weeks ago and I can still barely sit, stand, or go to the bathroom!





Be patient with each other...this will be a drastic change! Every now and then, make sure to tell each other you love them. It may sound like a small thing, but it helps! Sometimes you will get stressed out, and a hug, kiss, or an I love you might just be the thing to keep you going.





Lastly, just enjoy your baby as much as possible...they grow up fast :) I wish you the best of luck!!
hi there......congratulations to the parents to be ........well there world is going to change like they never imagined ......there quite organized life is no more this little bundle of joy is going to have a ball rapping them round his /her little finger ....best advice is enjoy them every day .....as they will grow and change so fast ......good luck and take care xx
read ';what to expect the first year'; gives lot of good advice. They are gonna probably worry themselves over every little thing, infants are pretty resilliant. Offer help anytime you can.
Dont go by the due date. make sure you have everything in place way before (ex car seat, clothes), and pick a name. You cant leave the hospital without one.


Also, don't be too stressed out, the lamase classes and everything will go right out the window and natural instinct will take over, everything will be fine
The best and only advice I can give them is once a month get a babysitter no matter how much it hurts to leave your baby and go out to have mommy and daddy time! Whether its to grab a bite to eat or see a movie etc. make time for their relationship because it will make them better and more patient parents!!
