What are they calling the baby? I've been stuck on the name Ian for a boy, so I have DD calling the baby "Baby Ian." (Now I'm re-thinking it which will not make her happy!)
My son just calls it baby. He talks about the baby in my tummy all the time and how he wants to hold it, love it and hug it. Haha, we'll call it baby brother or sister once we find out the sex.
We made the mistake of telling her when we got a positive HPT and beta for our first IVF and then our second beta went down and we lost it. She was DEVASTATED. Therefore we wont be telling her quite yet.
DD and my niece don't know yet, but when they do they will probably call it baby. Although with DD my niece called her baby in belly the whole time. lol.
We'll tell our LOs about baby #3 after 12 weeks. DD will likely get it right away, as she's already been through this once LOL. DS will likely have no clue what's going on... We called both DD and DS "Baby Ike" when I was pregnant with them, so that's what we'll do this time around too. We're team green this time though, so that's going to be the name until baby gets here!

DS isn't old enough to get it but I tell him we have a baby in Mummy's belly. Eventually we are going to get him a doll in an effort to teach him not to be rough with babies.

Nothing yet. My DH are trying to keep it under wraps still so we don't really talk about it too much.
My brother and his gf have been staying with us, so there hasn't been a chance for us to lay around and teach K about the baby yet.

I'm going to wait until after our NT scan to tell him anything. Last summer he would kiss my tummy and say "hi baby," even after the miscarriage.
We will just have him say "baby" again until we find out the sex.
