I'm always surprised by a negative reaction to gender parties. For us, we felt it was inapropriate to host another shower, but still wanted to celebrate the new baby...our second child deserves to be celebrated too! We invited all of the special people in our lives and had a blast! I'm sorry for people who don't have people in their lives that want to celebrate them...

I have heard from many parents that it can be very difficult to get your child to sleep in it's own bed or room after the experience of co-sleeping. I'm not judging, but would like to share my experience. My son has slept in his bed (the Stokke Sleep System) since the day he was brought home from the hospital. He is now 2 and a half and is still in their toddler bed. He's never slept a single night in our bed and has slept comfortably through the night for as long as I can remember. In our experience it was very important that my husband and I continue to have our time. With a new baby, it is easy to put your relationship on the back burner. Just sleeping in the same bed, without the baby...truly does help you regain your connection...just a suggestion. Wishing you the best of luck with whatever you end up doing!!

ugh...we are going through a constant back and forth about where to go. We lived in Chelsea until our son was mobile and then we moved to Brooklyn...both my husband and myself grew up in the suburbs (him in Westchester, me on LI). I guess I will always have the idea of a front and back yard in the back of my mind, but we love the city so much. Since having a child in the city, my love for it has seriously diminished. From carrying the stroller up and down subways steps multiple times a day with not only a hint of help being offered, but a fantastic attitude letting me know that I've complicated someone's day by just having a child..this city is not child friendly unless you've got money or a car. We are planning on having a second child and I can't even fathom how difficult it would be to have 2 kids in the city I onced adored. Now the question is...which dreaded suburb are we headed to...
