@Abby that’s a good idea!
Try to get them the older kid involved. Get a gift for your new siblings , help with picking the name, what are you going to teach your little bother/ sister? Also, know that your older kid will have a regression. For example if the older kid is potty training there will be a regression.
Oh what a great idea!!!!
I was so worried about this, mine are 12 months apart to the dot It happens, i just reassure my toddler that they are still important as well. i always involve her with little things such as diaper changes or entertaining her sister when she’s playing. I started that from the jump and now she barely gets jealous almost 5 months later. When baby is born, give your toddler a toy and tell them that their sibling got it from them. introduce hugs and kisses to stuffed animals in the mean time, say the siblings name is the stuffy. hope that helps😭it was a lot It will all work out❤️
Thank you all for the helpful advice! This makes me feel better!
I’m nervous to
I'm nervous about this as well currently 5 months pregnant my 1st born is 1 years old n I'm due Nov n don't really want her to feel left out especially since it's another bby girl
Yep. I had my second on Wednesday 6-19, and I was super nervous about it. I still feel bad because i had a csection and the healing has been rough an di haven't been able to play with or hold her how I want to. She seems to be doing pretty well though. She loves her "baybay" lol.
@Mekenzie congrats!!! That’s cute, I’m glad she’s doing well. I’ll be having a a c section too and worried about that too
Thank you! Everyday i feel better and I can do more with her, I've just got (TMI ) hemorrhoids that have been pretty bad and getting worse (today's been better though). My scar doesn't hurt too much but my uterus does hurt when she pushes on my belly.
Yes, haha worried about this too—though I may give my LO a gift from her little brother when he’s born.
