I've read its common for people to try and steal babies firsts and im interested to hear peoples stories.
A family member brought up taking my lo for her first shoe fitting, wanting to buy them the first rocking horse for Christmas knowing I've already picked one and that its a big deal to me, buying my babies first toothbrush without asking, asking to buy my babies first year old outfit. Sometimes ill nod it off and say yes, but deep down I have no intention of allowing it and I won't be using any of the firsts people buy anyway. I really want to hear about others experiences with people attempting or successfully stealing their babies firsts.

@Elderflower14

I missed taking my eldest son home from hospital... He was born prematurely at 26 weeks and lived for two hours... 😢 😢 😢 😢
So sorry for your loss @Elderflower14 💐

When I opened this thread I thought it was going to be about somthing real.

My ds has a development disability and hasn't met any milestones. So first steps, first words all that stuff has been "stolen" from me.

I coulndt care less if a friend or relative wanted to by him somthing for the first time.

@Alabamawhirly1 I am sorry about that but it is abit harsh to say it isn’t about anything “real” when there are people above you discussing miscarriages.

Interested in this thread?

What on earth?! Surely everything is baby's first at some point... Are you not going to let anyone near your baby? I've had 2 kids and this has never crossed my mind. I would like to be there for their first day of nursery and school though. But I couldn't care less about a toothbrush or a rocking horse... I do find that odd!

That was the point. The OP wasn't something real.

Some people have given examples of that something real.
