Theresa from Rock On Mommies asked this week’s question: What was the best and worst parenting advice you got while you were pregnant with your first? Of course, I couldn’t remember a lot of advice, so I offer my best advice and then I remember the worst.

I love it, I just want to be there with you having coffee, or a glass of wine! I am so glad I’m not the only one who couldn’t remember. Of course now when I think about it, it’s been 15 years since I was pregnant with my first. I might have to cry!

No kidding! I was rewatching the video when I realized that he was born in 2003, so that’s really 10 years ago that I was pregnant. Holy moly! I know! can’t believe how long ago it was!
Come, join me for wine. Or coffee talk! Remember that with Mike Myers on SNL?
Loved it Julie! You are so pretty in this video!
Sleep when the baby sleeps….yes….well I had to take that advice and forgo showers for the first 3 months because my new baby did NOT sleep. At All. So when she did sleep? So did I LOL!

OMG I can’t imagine never sleeping. that must have been dreadful.

says:
Ha ha Sleep gets lots of sleep..really how unrealistic is that. Why do people alway give that advice.
Twitter: juliempron
says:
seriously… horrible advice.
I remember everyone telling me what I was carrying: boy or girl, and there was no real consensus so I don’t what the heck people base it on.
Sleeping whenever the baby sleeps was advice I heard too. It was easier said than done though!
