I have always been a "big girl". I do not want my DD to be a fatty like me. We got a set of bibs and one said "little piggy". It is in the closet and she is not allowed to ever wear it.
(I realize that I can pass along good habits and I intend to)
I'm worried about the exact same thing. DH and I are both overweight so we really need to create healthy habits. Kids are so cruel, and I was teased constantly as a child. My om hadm me on a "diet" in the 3rd grade, bribing me with books if I lost a certain number of pounds. I have a very unhealthy body image, and I will do everything I can to make sure this doesn't happen to DD. I don't want her to suffer like I did.
DH and I are both stubborn and get upset quickly. I can let things go within minutes and DH can't. I hope the kids do not inherit any of these stellar qualities.
My temper!!!!! Dear god...i hope she doesnt get my temper! I also dont want her to cuss like i do! Thats why i try not to around her. Another thing is my nose, i got teased so bad in school...and i dont want her to have to go through that.

My lack of coordination. DS#1 walked straight into a wall this morning, so I'm afraid that one may be a done deal. Also, my ears stick out. But I think they both have DH's ears, so we're good there.
I was (am) TERRIFIED of having a baby girl (one day) because I am SO hairy. It's fine if a guy is hairy, but I was ridiculed in middle school and would be so sad if my daughter had to go through that...I hope my son does not turn out super hairy though.

My impatience and temper. And my clumsiness. I am constantly dropping/spilling/breaking/staining things and my husband teases me all the time.
LOL!

I would hope that my DD will not be a "planner" - or I want her to be able to roll with the punches more than me.
I am and it drives me crazy when things dont go the way I have "planned" them out. I dont want her to get as easily irritated as I get...
