how to become a good and responsible mother?

The best advice I can give you is to just trust your instincts. You'll know what to do when it comes. I read everything I could when I was pregnant and joined pregnancy/baby websites. The best one is BabyCenter.com. They have birth clubs to join for the month you're due and you can meet other moms expecting at the same time you are. I met a lot of other moms in my birth club and still talk to several of them. Talk to your mom or other female relatives and friends to get insight. You'll be fine, it really does come naturally.

Hi neillie! Congratulations! I had my first baby 7 weeks ago. I was nervous like you. Since it is our first, me and my husband doesn't know want to do at first. Gradually we learn, before we are guessing what his cries means but now we are able to distinguish them. Just relax and enjoy every single second you spend with your baby :)

Congratulations on your pregnancy. I think you should try to get some rest before your baby boy is born. I had a home birth with all of my three children. I had a natural and active birthing experiences. A young baby needs feeding when he wants to have it. He needs to sleep in a safe place like a crib. He needs his diaper changed when went or dirty. A baby is never too young for books and soft books are ideal for a young baby. There are toys available suitable from birth. A young baby needs head support when being held. The clothes are newborn, 0 to 3 months, 3 to 6 months, 6 to 9 months and 9 to 12 months old. A baby grows quite fast and many presents will be in the newborn or 0 to 3 months age range. You can be a responsible mom by helping your baby son in a gentle and loving way.

Always keep a body attachment with your child. It gives your child the feeling that his mother is always with him for his help. Your full concentration should be upon your child. Feed him properly. Don't keep his stomach empty. Always keep his body clean, change his napkin when it becomes wet. You must change the bed sheet of your child everyday. Spend time to talk with your child. Always keep the window open to breath fresh air. Use separate towel and soap for your child.Your presence should be always with him.

Don't worry at all about being a perfect mom and doing everything exactly right. Parenting is a learning process. Get a few baby care books, or look online at some of those parenting websites. Parenting is mostly common sense and practice. One of the biggest things to remember is that you are the only mom your little boy has ever had; he doesn't know that you put the diaper on crooked or you forgot to put his lotion on after his bath. He just knows that you are his mommy and you take care of him. Don't stress about the little things. The more relaxed you are, the more relaxed and happy he will be. Good luck and Congrats!!!

Hi nellie congratulations!!! Ask for advice to your mother. We all know that "Mother's knows best." Having a baby is a tough responsibility. You should have to be more careful. Take care of yourself. Eat right food and regular check up. In those ways your becoming a responsible mother...Happy MyLotting!!!

Don't be scared, you're instinct will tell you what to do when the baby comes out. I can feel how responsible you are when that time comes. Just thinking of failing as a mother will be enough motivation for you to be the best as you can be. I am confident that you will not fail as being a nurturing mom. Kudos to you!

Don't get worried about being a mother and how you will become as one. Being a mother comes as natural for every woman and there's no specific ways to be a good one. Just follow your good woman's instinct and all will come as natural. What you need is genuine and unconditional love for your baby (well, all mother has for their babies!)and the rest will follow.

Congratulations and good luck to you. I am a new mom, just gave birth to a healthy 7 pound baby boy last february 25. Motherhood is one of the greatest gifts a woman can give to mankind. Having a baby is a wonderful experience for every woman. Being parent is most beautiful feeling for every couple. Based on my own experience, you need to take good care of yourself after you gave birth to rebuilt your strength. You will need plenty of rest, good nutrition, and help during the first few weeks. Babies require a lot of work. Meeting the constant needs of a newborn involves time and energy. Like you, I am afraid if i can be a responsible mother. In order to conquer my fear, I read "What to Expect When You're Expecting" and "What to Expect the First Year." I suggest you grab a copy. I swear, you will like it. :)
