Do you wish your baby stayed a baby for a long time?

Hello much2say,Do I like my baby to a baby for a long time?For me the answer is very simple....and that is a "Yes".they are cute, innocent and above all they are a total fun......

Although I enjoyed my children as babies I did not wish that they stayed that way. My youngest is three and I love the way he is he is such a cheeky and happy little boy and I am able to have a conversation with him now as he is forming his own views and opinions.
I enjoy this stage as they are so chatty and some of the things they come out with make me laugh so much.

Good Afternoon! Yes, I would say I wish my little guy wasn't growing up so fast! He just turned 4 in August and every single day, his dad and I are amazed at how wonderfully LITTLE BOY his is! I do miss when he was an infant though... I miss the sweet smell of him, I miss him sleeping in my arms, I miss walking him in a stroller, I miss how simple life was when he was so little... My favorite age was when he was about 11 months old... He was just starting to walk and babble that sweet baby talk! BUT - I can't express how proud I am of him now - he's getting so big and he's so smart! He has the most wonderful little personality and I love being with him just as much now as I did then, just in different ways. All too soon, he will not be my little boy anymore. (Sigh)

my new born baby is about to turn 2 years old next month. i couldn't enjoy him MORE everyday when he suprises me with something new. i love learning about him and enjoy watchin him grow everyday is different all though there is a peice of me that wants that guy to be a small ball of butter that cries and poops all day again. i enjoy him alot more now that he talks to me

My children are now going on seven years old and my youngest will be three in just a couple of weeks. I can't say that I wish that they stayed babies forever, even though I just love that stage where the kids had total dependence on me. What I can say is I wish that it didn't seem like that stage of their lives flew by so fast. It seemed like in just a blink of my eye my daughter had gone from this tiny little being (6lbs 15oz) at birth to a little toddler who was wondering around the house and getting into everything. She started walking when she was only nine months old.
As far as my son and my niece who are within two months of the same age, I wish they could have stayed little a lot longer because when one of them started doing something, they both did. What I mean is when Paul started walking so did Lilliana and that quickly led to double trouble. It was just like having twins with both of them in the same house.
I miss the stage of them being babies, but I also really like to see the shadows of the man and woman that they are going to become.

For me I like watching my two children grow up. Each stage has its perks and downfalls. If my babies stayed babies forever I would miss out on so many amazing moments. I will always look back on the baby stage with fond memories, but no, I would not want them to stay there forever. Babies are meant to grow up, that is what they do! I like it that way!

No, I wouldn't have wanted them to stay as little new babies. Once they started talking, having their own personalities etc was brilliant. However, though I miss having them around at home and their 20+ years seem to have gone so fast, I am incredibly proud of them both and they are not just my sons but my great friends too.

I'm with you. I loved them being babies. Still, I absolutely loved watching each and every one of them grow and turn into the people they are today. And ya know what? There are always cute and cuddly little babies to hold for a while and then return back to their parents whenever I need a little baby fix.

My two children are teenagers now. There are definitely days when I wish i could turn back time and make them babies once again. I'm telling you, they would never leave their cribs. I hear people talk about the good old days. For me this would be the long ago days when my children were still in diapers and were not walking and talking yet. I love my children but they were easier to handle when they were babies!

Hello! I have a 3 yrs old daughter and NO i don't wish she stays as a baby, maybe if i wish something, is that, she stay as a toddler but not a baby. Because when she was a baby we cannot do anything, she is just sleeping, sometimes she will smile if you do something funny to her, but toddler yrs are very fun!I can talk to her, play with her, i can still cuddle with her and she can already appreciate things. She can tell you what she wants, I can see her developments and it really excite me to see what she will become when she grows up. I really love bringing her wherever i go because i am amazed with her expressions and her innocent questions. But of course, she will grow up, but she will be my baby forever.
