Im 4 days off from 8 months and im more
worried what elisa (16 months) may do to
her little brother when born, if any of
you ladies have any advice on this let me
know, I need to be prepared. Elisa
will be 17 1/2 months when her brother is
born and I have seen her around other kids
and know what she can do biting, pushing
hitting, I do give her time out as well as
tell her no but I fear it wont be
enough.
Elisa in general is an awesome child, she
barely cries is finally sleeping the night
again and is very independant. Any
advice from other moms would be helpful,
its just starting to kick in im due in 8
weeks lol....

The first thing that you need to do .. Is
buy a boy doll or a girl doll whatever,
and introduce it to her and tell her this
is your baby brother.. Etc. Etc. Then
you need to wrap the baby up and start
holding him and getting her use to you
holding another baby. So that she wont
feel jealous. Also have her try to kiss
the baby.. And tell her easy and not to
ruff stuff like that..
