just take a deep breath im going to b a first time god mother formy boufriends little cousin and I was scared to but then one nite I just thought about how my god mother trats me so what I sujust is to look at how your aunt(s) treats you and if you like it then you should have a sence of what he/she would like but remember you have to be their frind and/but aunt

Answer #2

just be there to support and help your sister, I no how you feel I was really scared because my sister gave birth a few months back and I am really bad around babys but just be there for your sister, its really amazing. I hope he is well, and just do your best.

this is the next BEST thing to being a mom. dont worry you are going to be GREAT . just the fact alone tell me that. if you weren’t so worried then maybe just maybe there would be room for concern. your going to love it. it’ll come second nature to you . I can tell have fun & congrats on your new nephew. OH 7 dont worry about his heart rate, its normal.

Answer #4

dont worry I was going to the same problem when I was like 13 and I wasnt sure if the baby was ganna like I wouldnt be able to hold him right and stuff like that well those worries have actaully made me a better aunt! because I did some I guess you can call it research on what to do and how to act and when to baby talk to him and guess what the im the only one (besides his mom) that can have him fall asleep and he loves to be with me! so the worries you have now will help you when the baby comes and if you like you can always stop and leave me some funmail with any questions! hope I helped

Answer #5

well I was just in the same situation 8 months ago. my sister was pregnant and I was really worried. I’m only 16 and and she’s a teenage mother herself. so obviously I wasnt the only one worried. but everything turned out fine. my sister and our whole family love the baby and we’re so happy she’s here. everything will be fine, just pray and hope everything goes smoothly. good luck with everything. :)

Answer #6

hey! don’t worry about it! I am an aunt and it’s fun. about the heartrate, don’t worry about that. they chances of it being bad are very slim. my little sister had low heart rate and they put a machine on her that beeps whenever her heartrate was low or she forgot to breathe that surprises her that makes her heart rate go faster. Remember, GOD IS IN CONTROL, and congratulations!
