Well? isn't this lovely! Not only have I been blessed with a Cancer man that is the love of my life? I just found out that I am blessed with a little Cancer Bambino due around the 26th of June.
I am excited of course but I am also wondering what it would be like to be the mother of a Cancer child.
Thanks! I know I was worrying about that... well as long as it comes healthy and not too early I'll be happy with either one 🙂
LOL... sounds like my Cancer guy was the same way as you... he was very spoilt 🙂 and a big mama's boy. He wants a girl... cause he wants a daddy's girl...
Congrats on your pregnancy as well... wishing you a happy and healthy baby boy. Capricorns are good people... I had a Cappy ex and he loved his mama very dearly...
I have been reading your posts... how are you doing? Hope things are looking up for you now 🙂
"I have been reading your posts... how are you doing? Hope things are looking up for you now" ...yeah, what she said.
As for cancer baby boys... As a kid, I was probably the trouble-maker out of my mom's 7 kids. I was the youngest of the first 3 (my birth marked the separation of my parents). My story will probably a little out of the ordinary (as I felt like a loner for most of my youth), but I was always happy in my mother's presence... unless she was feeling down. I have 5 brothers, 1 gem, 1 pis, 1 leo, 1 aqua, 1 libra... and my sister is pis. Ironically (quoting my mother), she is a cap. I was easy to teach (not that I liked/believed this, but I was probably told by more of my family members that I was smart [more so than my siblings], even my brothers and sister continue to tell me this). I always wanted to have company (weird how sometimes I still do), but barely ever had it. I was quiet around strangers. Never wanted to talk to either of my parents about a problem (but I think that was because I felt they didn't have time for me). When I was old enough to realize they did have the time for me... I didn't know how to talk to them (so if I were you, I would build a strong line of communication with him early on). I was the only one of my mother's kids to smoke (or do drugs), the first to drink (and now I'm one of the two that do), I always wandered into dangerous places and situations when I was young (to see what all the hype/fear was about) but never got in too deep, I would never let any problems I got into follow me back to the house (I wouldn't be able to live with myself if my family got hurt because of something I did [I'd rather die in the street]), I got (and still do get) bored with things that are too easy, and when I was 14 I found out some family secrets that have scarred my ability to trust. Be honest, no matter how bad it hurts your cancer child, that way they will always trust you. Cancer boys are very determined... we're the best at what we do. Which means: -If we're gonna be liars... you WILL believe us (after enough practice). Keep the trust. -If we're going to cheat... you'll believe we earned it. -If we're going to steal... we'll convince you we found it. -etc. etc. etc. the list could go on (instilling strong morals from the beginning [even if they choose the wrong path at any given time in life] will cause them to see where they are wrong... and they will try their hardest to find their way back)
Like I always tell you... you are exactly like my Cancer. 😉 Everything you said is pretty much just like him. (even the stuff about the first to drink and communication with the parents...)
Thanks for your advice... very informative and honest.
PS... my Cancer's mother told me the same thing about him. She said "no matter what he does... and even though his father brushes his hands off him... I just can't do it... he's a special child to me, even if he is the one that causes me the most worry."
He has an older brother and younger sis which he feels out shines him. (Even though I know they don't 🙂 )
Your mom sounds cool... my mom (Virgo) was also like this... I grew up very mature because she told me about sex at an early age and gave me "grown up" sex ed books to read. So I knew alot more about sex and babies and stuff than my peers. Alot of girls that I went to school with got pregnant at a very young age, my mom educated me so to prevent this, or at least to let me be aware of the consequences of sex from an early age because she too was uneducated and grew up believing babies were found in a pond. Having no clue about sex from her strict Christian parents, she got caught at a fairly early age with me.
What sign is your mom?
I love kids and I love open communication so I know that won't be a problem with me being a parent.
My biggest fear with a Cancer is their sensitivity and discreetness.
WOW!!!! Well you have really made my day! I am glad to hear your mom and you got along so well, since I am a Taurus expecting a Cancer. 🙂 And your dad is a Cancer? What happened with them? (Sorry if I may seem like I am digging in your business, you dont have to answer if you don't want to 🙂 )
I know Cancers give their parents no wrong sometimes (at least my guy sees no wrong in his mother (Gemini), but what was your biggest issue with your mom?
"not yet, i want make sure i got the money to feed them."
Typical Bull... I understand. Well thankfully, I am in a good place in my life right now...
If I had planned the pregnancy... I wouldn't have planned it for right now, because of course I would want more stabilty, but I am thankful. I always want more and better... maybe this is my lesson to just live 🙂
You won't believe what I started thinking when I found out... "How am I going to save for college and vacations?" LOL... that's my mind... crazy... always thinking about money.
"not yet, i want make sure i got the money to feed them." That's the way to go...
"I always want more and better... maybe this is my lesson to just live" sounds like that 'message' about cancers waiting until everything is perfect... LOL
"wait, my mom was a taurus sun/virgo moon, like me. she might as well be a virgo, i swear."
Oh ok... you and I were getting too similar to be real 🙂
Well she's like us then... cool. How was she as a mom?
My mom is a typical Virgo... and as much as I love her... she gets on my nerves and I can only take her in small doses. 🙂 As a kid she was my hero... I was attached to her hip... she spoiled me and my brother... I know most mothers may be like this but my mother is really true to the expression of giving to her children her last. She worried alot and held us very closely and always found ways to spend lots of time with us and bought us lots of toys that we liked just to please us. She was a pleaser... but she was also very strict and instilled high morals into us.
Later in life she just couldn't let go and this is what annoys me. She trys to control us still (ages 24 and 21) and gets jealous of our friends and relationships. Oh well... we're all she's got I guess, and maybe I could end up just like her 😢
I'm a Philly kid... born and raised. About as far away from you as I can get. Its getting cold and I need someone to keep me warm. 😢 😢 I'm not going back to school until January, but I was referring to my mother not being able to wait until I get out of school to have more kids.
"oh, word of advice, even if you don't believe, take your children to church. it is a good base for life. keeps me outta trouble."
OH for sure! I am very religious, so my kids will be in the church. That's why I always wanted to be married before having kids... to set that positive example.
Jean... thanks for sharing your story about your mom and dad. I am Sorry it turned out like that. I guess that is the number one problem with Taurus and Cancer... communication.
Broken... hopefully you'll soon get that special someone to warm you up during the harsh winter coldness 😉
Thank you Scorp... lol I know right... like I don't have enough to deal with with just one... but the good thing is that Cancers love their mommy's so hopefully I won't have to deal with the typical complaints we have about these crabs 😉
My baby is gonna know that the shell think can't work and it only hurts people sometimes. Now that I know Cancers so well maybe I can try to help mine to deal with their emotions differently.
"I wonder why LK or Krobe haven't come out to congratulate you? Hmmm, nothing negative to say about this thread. lmao!!!" No... just that her self-confidence is already up. ...if I said anything more, I would be welcoming an dispute. LOL And stop beating up on Krobe.
I am excited of course but I am also wondering what it would be like to be the mother of a Cancer child.
Cancers? I know you love your mothers 🙂?
So what were you like as kids?
