Exciting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just found out that I'm gonna have another baby. After this one I'm done. My son is so happy he can't wait. My daughter doesn't understand but I know it will be hard when the baby comes because she is a mommy's girl all the way she won't want tto share me. She even has problems sharing me with brother and he ain't new. I'm kind of scared cause I'm afraid of how she will act. I hope she is ok. I don't want her to have to grow up before she has to.

Hi Amanda! Congrats! I have 3 kids also. there ages are 5, 3, and 1. It was a big adjustment when my youngest was born. So here is a little advice: Don't be suprised if your kids behavior is a little out of the ordinary. they will act up as a way to get your attention. It's harder to spread yourself between 3 kids. The adjustment took about 6 months for us but now my son is 18 months old and everything is pretty normal. Enjoy your family and try not to get to frustrated. Lots and lots of posative attention. I set aside some special one on one time with my oldest 2 each day and that seemed to help.

Hi Amanda,

 

Congratulations on your soon to be new bundle of joy!! My kids are all very close in age (4, 2.5, 1,5 and 2 months) but I noticed as each of my new babies came home the older kid(s) would revert to wanting to be coddled like a newborn and I allowed that to happen for the first couple of weeks and then on their own it became Mom I'm a big kid I'm not a baby. I wouldn't worry to much about your daughter so long as you are able to make some special one on one time with her, even if it's just reading her favourite story or playing a game.

 

Enjoy your children because they do wind up growing up way too fast!!

Good Luck to you and your family!!
