Yes I would have to agree with Buzzlightyear, you will have to go at the baby's pace. I have given this thread a great deal of thought, another thing you have to take into account is how much help your going to have with the baby. I hate to be this way (Expecially being a male and all) but a lot of guys aren't very helpful when it comes to the more mundane baby chores (Diapers
, burping :nervous etc) associated with child rearing:dazed . I guess your going to have to take then into account also. Myself I always dove in headfirst when it came to my kids and as my wife realized this she was sorry that she insisted on putting off some of the trips that I wanted to take when our first one was born (She lsitend to her sisters
). One such trip was a vacation we had planned for Arizona, but that's another story for another time. My point is this: If you and your husband are NOT on the same page and he is not inclined to help out and see the joy in the total baby experience, it might be better to wait until the child is older, I'm not one for splitting up the family for a vacation (It's either all off us or nothing). That is unless you feel you can get past that and handle the baby on your own without any help! It is a real tough call. :)
