PARENTING TIPS

Please send your baby advice/parenting tips to me at lara@thefish959.com. We're expecting baby #1, a boy, this fall. :-) Here's some great advice from Chuy, a dad of 3:

Best Tip I received was to register for A LOT of diapers...I MEAN A LOT!!!They go through them like nothing...Infants need changing like 10 -15 times a day for the first few months.

Just enjoy him for every moment and if there are some difficult or overwhelming nights have a friend to call to be able to vent to.

OH yeah...Go to the beach & dig out a hole in the sand, place a towel over the hole, cover it with an umbrella, and you can SLEEP ON YOUR STOMACH! The hole will be big enough to allow the belly to be supported but not squished, and most of all you get some restful sleep.

Chuy, you rock!!! Thank you so much for this.
