			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.maternity.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/mom-and-baby.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-740" title="mom-and-baby" src="http://www.maternity.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/mom-and-baby-240x300.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="300" /></a><a href="http://www.hisboyscanswim.com/1652/best-first-time-advice-from-moms-on-twitter" target="_blank">His Boys Can Swim!</a> posed the following question on <a title="Twitter" href="http://twitter.com/HisBoysCanSwim" target="_blank">Twitter</a>: “<em>What’s the best advice you would offer to a 1st time mom?</em>”  She got some great advice and shares the wisdom on her blog for all the other first-time mom&#8217;s out there!</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a long list, so I picked my fifteen favorites:</p>
<ol>
<li>@NightNannies &#8211; Take each day at a time and enjoy your baby as it goes very quickly.</li>
<li>@jules23 &#8211; Do your own thing. EVERYONE will have an opinion on what you should do.</li>
<li>@wellbalancedpup &#8211; Get a good babysitter and have time doing things with your partner and dont feel guilty about it.</li>
<li>@sarabanut &#8211; Take ANYONE up on their offer to help after you have the baby.</li>
<li>@Elouise82 &#8211; Best advice? Don’t listen to other mothers’ advice! They will all drive you insane if you let them.</li>
<li>@jerseybites &#8211; Relax. We make our first borns so neurotic by being so neurotic. Don’t make everything have to be a lesson. Just enjoy.</li>
<li>@WayMoreHomemade &#8211; From a control freak… realize that it’s not all under your control.</li>
<li>@sueannesjewelry &#8211; Trust your own instincts when it comes to the mental and physical health of your child. Nobody knows them like mom.</li>
<li>@tygerbaby &#8211; My sister had antibacterial everything…I’m pretty sure there were no living microbes anywhere in the house but…my nephew gets sicker more often than his younger sister, and the illnesses hit hard.</li>
<li>@MomPath &#8211; Best advice 4 1st time mom? Laugh more &amp; let the unimportant stuff slide. It’s an amazing adventure.</li>
<li>@cheeriokeeper &#8211; Always pack 2-3 outfits in the diaper bag. There’s always bound to be a blow-out when you’re least expecting it.</li>
<li>@latarahamying &#8211; Sleep when the baby sleeps and don’t try to be superwoman &#8211; it is impossible</li>
<li>@birthinbinsi &#8211; Listen to advice, but trust your instincts. You know what is right for you and your baby.</li>
<li>@SideKickBoy &#8211; If only my wife believed me when I told her how cute she is all pregnant.</li>
</ol>
<p>&#8230;and I&#8217;ll add my own:</p>
<p>15. Use the internet&#8230; it&#8217;s a great resource (and comfort) for all your pregnancy and baby related questions!</p>
