Gianna talks to her baby sister


There has never been a single day passed when Gianna has not spoken to her baby sister (still in my tummy)! When I got pregnant and I told Gianna that I have a little baby inside me, she would always say, “mumma, I want a baby sister”. She was so happy to know that her wish has come true. Since then, our baby has always been there in Gianna’s talks. Gianna has become so attached to the baby, that if she hits my tummy by mistake, she says sorry to the baby. She enjoys pressing her hands against my tummy for feeling her movements and finds this whole experience really funny. She tells to her papa, “papa, we are girls’ team, and you are out!” She often asks me about how much time is left for the baby to come out.  She shows her love to her li’l sister by kissing my tummy and hugging it many a times in a day. Whenever Gianna wants to go somewhere (be it to the park, or for shopping, or to school, or for playing outside), she ensures to check with me if the baby is accompanying her in all those places.


The fight is over (deciding) the name of the baby. As per Gianna, baby’s name would be “baby Gianna” and not anything else. The reason behind this name is that it’s Gianna’s baby not mumma-papa’s. She starts crying if we tell her other names. This whole conversation is very cute and innocent but I feel that it will take a lot of samjhana bujhana to Gianna. I love every bit of Gianna’s protective behavior towards her baby sister and believes that it will continue even after Gianna’s little sister is born. I know that Gianna is going to be the best sister that our baby would have.
