Toddlers: 24 Months+

2nd child advice

We're currently trying to have another baby. My son is 2 yrs old. Do any of you know of any good children's books for toddlers that explain that mommy's having a baby and you're going to be a big brother/sister?

  • There is a whole section in the book store, we have 2, I think they're all kind of the same.  I would just suggest that you not discuss it with your son until you're showing.  IMO I don't think kids get it or benefit from being talk to too much too early on.  We started to talk to DD about it when I was probably 6 months because I was showing.  I think it worked out ok, she seemed to get it because she picked up on his name very quickly and even though she was kind of off at the hospital and wanted to leave, she wanted to take him with us.
