That you love him in every way. When you play with ur baby do the same time with your son or set times when u take turns and let him know hey.. when timer goes off it’s play time with mommy
Good luck with that lol. I'm due any day and have 21 month old it's hard not going to lie to ya . If your partner is helpful it means things will be a lot easier. I feel same about my baby being jealous when he little brother comes and I feel sad a little. Just include older one in all you do with new baby.
I'm due December 16th with my little girl and my son is 4 in April next year, my sons only really had his stepdad and I'm now carrying his stepdads little one but I went through my first pregnancy alone as my sons dad didn't really give a damn, where as this time round I have my partner and my son aswell as my family and my partners mum and siblings x
@Ian I was thinking that and taking my first out once a week with just me or his dad so he knows we do still have time for him and that we will always make time with him
@Shonagh Charlie I think it’s all just nerve racking but I think it will always be like that as we don’t know the future I think we’ve just got to do as much as we can to include them still scary though hahaha
Aye iv ended up sending my dog to my parents for a bit as he's a massive German shepherd border collie and my 3year old keeps just attacking him, needed the break as iv had 5 or 6 seizures within the space of the last 2/3 months 😒x
My son is 4 and my daughter is 1. I made sure while I was pregnant to spend at least 10/15 min every day with my son and have him feel my tummy and talk about being a brother and having a baby coming home. You don’t have to do that but yes communicate with him about the changes that are going to happen. My son was the only child until he was 3 1/2. It was extremely hard because even though I prepared us it was just totally different when my daughter came. Being a single mom as well has played a huge part of this being difficult..My attention was going towards my daughter because she was always crying etc and I mean babies need your attention constantly .. my son started doing the baby crying thing because he thinks I’d give him attention but it was incredibly frustrating. I had to take a step back and look at the bigger picture. He just wanted to be treated the way I treated him before the baby arrived. Everything that your doing with him now continue doing it and remind him
