Her name is pronounced Leah but spelled Lea.
She has False Appearence Disorder and she
she sleeps with her eyes open every night!
I noticed she's not teething and she hasn't
been wetting her diaper. I breastfeed her when
I'm able to,most of the time when I'm away or
at school I have left a bottle half full of breast milk
and the other half with skim milk at room temp.
She's crying a lot too! I feel like if she gets a
baby brother or baby sister I'll have to put a
crib for the next one beside my bed and she'll
sleep with me and my husband in our bed.
I have a feeling she's not gonna like him.
She might get ticked off too easily or somethin.
Should I see Dr. Phil? I'm only 16 weeks
pregnant any way, if nobody knows how
to spell her name, spell it L-e-a.
A little help please!

My two youngest children are 12 months apart. And there is 2 years between my oldest and middle child. so, they are pretty close together. I had some concerns whild pregnant with my last child b/c of already having a baby at home and was very concerned about bring home another baby. But, when he got here, everything worked out fine. I told my middle child that there was a baby in my tummy when I started showing pretty good. We would help her sing to the baby and stuff and read books about getting a new baby, even though she was still very young. When the new baby arrived she loved him and kissed on him and played with him, but most of the time just did her own thing when he was very little. It was hard, but we got throught!!

as long as you dont ignore her when the new baby gets here i think you will be alright ... just include Lea in the babies life as much as possible ...let her help you make a bottle or show her how to get a diaper or something make her feel like its her babay too she shouldnt have any problems ... just take your time with her and let he know that you still love her as much as you did before the new baby got here and I'm sure Lea will adjust just fine ...but I wouldnt be giving her skim milk I do believe if you arent breast feeding she should have formula ... she is too young for milk

please do not give your baby cow's milk. this is very bad for them. cow's milk is for cow's. she needs breast milk or formula at that age. if she is not wetting at least 5 or 6 diapers a day, take her to the doctor because something is wrong. there is no way to know how she is going to react to the new baby until it gets here. if no one know how to pronounce her name, it's your fault not theirs. people today give their kids all kinds of cute names with funky spelling and then wonder why no one can pronounce it.

You wont know until he get here. But I noticed you said you are giving her half skim milk. That is unhealthy and may be making her cry. She should not be getting straight cows milk yet, and if she is it should be whole milk. Babies need the fat to develop

you may not be getting good milk since your pregnant. give her formula. cows milk will upset her stomach. talk to her doctor about your concerns
