C will be 1 tomorrow. It's really wigging me out. Someone sang happy birthday to her today and it very nearly caused an ugly cry on my part.
I don't want my baby to grow up.

Aww I had the same feelings! DS will be two in 3.5 weeks and I find myself having the same feeling again. I know we don't want them to grow up so fast, but it is a fact of life.
I cried at LO's birthday party when we sang and everyone thought it was because he was turning one..no it was because he screamed the entire party and was miserable while we sang and I was just so sad for him to have such a terrible first birthday.

Hugs, I can't get over that my sweet little baby is 7 months old already. I'm going to be a wreck for his first birthday!

(((Hugs))) My LO just hit 7 months, and I am right there with you! It is so bittersweet to watch them grow up! All I can say is that if the past 7 months is indicative of the future, I will only continue to be more amazed at her, and she will only make me happier and happier.
My MIL has a bad habit of talking about my LO like she is already grown up . . . it makes me want to punch her and say *what the eff? why are you in such a hurry for MY baby to grow up!*

I hear ya, same here! But C has gotten so much more fun since he turned 1, that I'm really appreciating his advancing age. I was so focused on wanting a baby, I didn't really think of him turning into a toddler- but he is a total blast!

O man....I don't know what to tell you. My son turns six months in a few days and I can't come to terms with that-let alone one year.
*hugs*

So sad! I know it's supposed to be a happy time but every new milestone makes me sad that yesterday is gone. I feel ya...

Awww. My daughter turned one yesterday. I think she knows it b/c she has been telling me loud and clear for the last week or so that she is NOT a baby anymore. Everything about her behavior is screaming independence and "I'm a big girl". Where did my little baby go??

@zippylef: It's tough, especially when it seems like they're speeding up instead of slowing down. But it's SO much fun to see what they'll discover next.

Can't believe she's 1 tomorrow. But I am right there with you! Sad and happy and all sorts of emotions rolled into 1. I am going to be a mess next month!

I'm right there with you. I just sent out his birthday invites and it's so depressing. Not to mention the fact that he doesn't want to be treated like a baby much anymore, either.

aww I did the ugly cry last week, when LO turned 6 months. I'm already dreading her birthday, which is so terrible...because it was such a great, great day. I'm really trying so hard to focus on loving her and who she is becoming, and not wishing the clock back! I'm not doing too well though.

@zippylef: Aww Its so tough on moms for sure to see them grow up. My toddler is now into playing baby and will let me carry her around cradled and lets me give her kisses like a baby!
