dude i was an only child to and if it wasn't for my sister. Id be a complete b itch now. but once she was born i became a great big sister and we've had some ruff patches but I'm glad shes here i don't know what id do with out her. Look at it in a positive way. u can teach her how to put make up on and get her all dolled up and stuff. If anything it teaches u to be a better person and learn how to handle responsibility. So be happy they give u presents at the baby shower to so just be happy.

1) Your parents will not stop loving you because they have another child. They will have less time that's yours exclusively, but it won't change how they feel about you.
2) Babies are wonderful. They are so small, precious, defenseless, and needful that almost everyone melts when there's one around. You probably will too.
3) Decide that you are going to love this new brother or sister and that you'll be the best big sister there ever was. Your parents will really appreciate any help you can give them and will love and respect you all the more. (Parents of newborns are zombies for the first three months due to sleep deprivation.)
4) Even before the baby arrives, help your mom. Volunteer to go to the Lamaze classes and be one of the labor coaches. Buy the Jane Fonda workout tape for pregnant women and do it with your mom.
There are all kinds of ways to make this experience bring you and your parents closer. You have to make it work for you.
Good luck!

I'm really not sure how far apart in age you will be but I think it will be OK. Don't go in to this negative. Yes, you won't get 100% attention anymore but in the long run this will be good for you. You will start feeling some Independence and really appreciate all the time you do spend with your parents. YOUR DAD will always give you all he can, he does now, he always will. Your DADDY'S LITTLE GIRL and he won't forget that no matter how old or big you get. It sounds like your closer to your dad than your mom, this is a chance for you and your mom to build a closer relationship too. Once you see the baby you'll melt, and you'll be a happy and proud big sister. Just support your parents and everything will fall RIGHT, right in to place.

You might be surprised to find that when the baby arrives you will like being a big sister. Dont worry about it, as there is really nothing you can do. If you continue to be upset about it all that will happen is you will be unhappy and make everyone else feel bad. Wait until the baby is here to see how things go.

Do you really think that you will be treated any differently by your parents? Just relax and shower your new baby sister or brother with love and attention. Just because there is a new one on the way doesn't mean everything is going to change. You'll be just fine. You need to think about that you are going to be a role model for that little person.

Your parents didn't sign a contract with you saying that you'd be the one and only, did they? Well then, all of the above plus be supportive of your mom. Being jealous is only going to make things hard for her (and you). I hope they sign you up for a new sibling kind of class which is offered at most hospitals these days. Good luck, and I bet you will adore your little baby brother of sister!

How about growing up. You are part of the family and can now start contributing to it. Help out. Be supportive.
Take a child care class and a child CRP class so you can be a responsible baby sitter for your new brother or sister.

Yes how about growing up and face the reality that you are no more a baby in the cot.
it is joy of every child to have somebody that he/she will called brother or sister to take care of.
but the way you sound it seem you want to be selffish and self-centred wish is not good for you.
remember that you are going to grow up and get marry too one day for you can never stay with your parent for the rest of your life.
baby you have to grow up and face the reality now

You could grow up. You know, try that whole maturity thing. Get out of that whole selfish thing. Yeah. Give that a try. Unless you think you could talk your mom into an abortion just so you could stay spoiled. Probably not. You could listen to Otis F up there. Good post.

hey be happy for them....
since u r so spoiled, maybe this will be a gud experience for u...
naturally ur parents are going to be more attentive to ur new sibling but that doesn't mean that they will stop luving u...
u will still be their first born and let me tell u first borns always have a very special place in the parents lives...
so be happy and try to luv ur bro / sis....
