how does he know??

So far we haven't told anyone about the baby and DH and I really haven't talked about it much. If we do, we spell the words backwards because DD knows how to spell some words and we didn't want her figuring it out :) 

The other night I was putting DS to bed and he asked me what happened to the swimming diapers that used to be in his closet. I told him I gave them our friend who has a baby. He said that we needed them back and I reminded him that he's potty trained and doesn't need to wear diapers anymore. He said "no Mommy, not me. For OUR baby". I asked him what he was talking about and he said "the baby in your tummy" and patted my stomach. I asked him again what he was talking about and he said "I think there's a baby in there...there's a baby in there right?" I just kind of brushed it off and then started tickling him.

How do kids know? DD was 4 when I got pregnant last time and once we told her, she told everyone we saw so I'm not ready to tell them yet. DS was only 2 and didn't understand but I think he's going to get it this time around.

  • That brought a tear to my eye, that's amazing. What a smart guy! I think I would have broke down right then and there and told him, but I totally understand why you're waiting.

  • That's like when little kids put their heads on the ground, it is a sign that someone is pregnant. They just know.  I don't have any kids, but my dogs definitely know.  My 3 yr old lab mix sleeps with her head on my stomach now or with her whole body against mine. Its so funny.  
    Baby #2 is on the way!!
