And I plan to check out that site as soon as Im done updating my blog. And before I read anyone elses because that always takes me to the end of my computer time. ;)bordersasidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14142674938117338592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6553388201961125907.post-25569844793333576652010-08-07T04:04:07.174-07:002010-08-07T04:04:07.174-07:00Ok, screw waiting for the book - check out this li...Ok, screw waiting for the book - check out this link, I liked some of the stuff!

If I get knocked up I guess she'll try to crawl back inside me, who knows. As of late she's going through the stage where she can be happy and fine with her Daddy (being held) but if I walk out of the room she screams. <br /><br />Ok, so I'm no help - but I can comiserate! :) <br /><br />Have you TOLD her that the baby's coming? I was reading in my What to Expect book about siblings and it mentioned a bunch of ways to help young ones cope if they know about it coming. Of course I'm at work right now and can't look it up - but I'll bring it to work tonight (cuz that's the only time I can get on a computer!) and give you some suggestions! :)Gringa-n-Mexicohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03248889552344481041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6553388201961125907.post-47132516855998330162010-08-03T20:01:21.849-07:002010-08-03T20:01:21.849-07:00I find this fascinating! The only time I witnessed...I find this fascinating! The only time I witnessed something like this was when our nephew threw a tantrum when he was told that he was going to have a brother or sister (which wasn't true, they were teasing him b/c he said all the time he wants to be the only child.) It was so bizzare, he started acting like he was stabbing his mother's womb - where the baby would be. I was appalled at what I thought was extreme jealousy, or chipilismo! I learned from this post, thank you. :-)One Small Vozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04966486789164013039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6553388201961125907.post-32989068669092869462010-08-03T15:52:09.169-07:002010-08-03T15:52:09.169-07:00My son was very "chipil" when I was preg...My son was very "chipil" when I was pregnant with Sophie so I believe ;) He got so bad when she was born that he even came down with a fever the whole time I was in the hospital.Mama of 4https://www.blogger.com/profile/15405792057986609395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6553388201961125907.post-67292416969072334942010-08-03T14:06:35.776-07:002010-08-03T14:06:35.776-07:00Joslin is the living description of the word "...Joslin is the living description of the word "Chipil". And yes, it's also a word often mentioned during pregnancy. Most Mexicans believe that young kids can sense not only our hormones, but the unborn child as well. <br /><br />Some believe that if a child is acting especially "chipil", it's means the mom will be having a child of the same sex as the child who is "chipil". And others believe that the unborn child will be of the opposite sex. :P (Does that make sense? LOL!) <br /><br />I don't know if that is true, because my kids were never all that "chipil". <br /><br />But if you ever want to talk about "Mamitis", I'm an expert! :)Leslie Harrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12084393882026836564noreply@blogger.com
