What should I do?

edited February 2011 in Parenting
My daughter love love loves to have all of mommy & daddys attention. & with her brother coming soon we stopped giving her bottles and moved her to sippy cups. But I feel like she's going to feel unloved with her brother coming soon. We have tried to involve her in as much as possible. Any advice on what I should do?

  • Oh she will be fine! If you start to feel bad you could start to spoil her :$ just make sure she gets some one on one. She will love being your lill helper with the baby! Don't worry having a lill brother will teach her some very good life lessons ;)
  • She's spoiled enough. But thank-you for the advice
  • Do you have any family with children younger than her? My youngest will be 3 after we welcome baby#3. I think that being around our nephew's 1yr old baby has helped him to learn how to share and how to be gentle. We also look at books with him and show him what our baby looks like as it develops. He seems really excited about being a big brother.
  • She's around my brothers daughter a lot.
  • Having another relative like grandparents for the first week to help to give #1 kid attention so you can focus on the new baby. My oldest didn't like her new sister for 2 wks but eventually warmed up after realizing her baby sis wasn't going anywhere
