After doing research and what not about trying to get a baby boy we finally decided...let's just do whatever we could and leave it to Allah :)
I look through Chinese Calender and found out that January is the month to conceive a baby boy and my birth year (according to Chinese zodiac)coincide with the calculation :) Not that I believe it 100% but at least it gives us a good feeling, hehe.
So we've tried and my most fertile dates are only 2 days left. It's so much stressful when you really want a baby rather than doing it without any expectation like 4 years earlier, lol!
Aresha has begin to understand the idea of having a sibling. She wants to hold the baby and sleeps with him/her. We watched'In the Womb' on National Geographic last Sunday and she gets so excited seeing a newborn baby :) That's a good start.
I know it wasn't easy being the eldest. I remember (tho I was only 2 1/2) being so jealous of my cute baby brother when suddenly the attention goes to him and ppl commenting on how adorable he was. I hit his head once when no one's looking, lol! Evil sister!
It is important to introduce Aresha to her soon-to-be sibling as early as the baby bump starts showing and remember to let her touch the baby (and not get too paranoid) anyway she likes so that she won't feel left out or even worse less special than the baby.
Here's hoping to hear baby cries and laughter by the end of this year :)
And start digging out all the bottles, sterilizer and old infant clothes, ha!
