[quote=Anonymous]Mine was three when his sister was born. It didn't even occur to me that he needed to be in the BFing loop! I don't remember him asking or it being a big deal. I guess we normalized it from day 1. I tried showing him home birth videos because we were considering a home birth and he was totally uninterested.

If you are worried, maybe get a bunch of books on the topic from the library and pick what vibrates with you. Maybe it would help if he gained big boy privileges the day baby comes home.

I'm always telling him "I'm sorry I cant XYZ right now because I need to ABC the baby" or "She doesn't know because she is a baby" (to not take toys out of his hand, etc) but some day she will be able to PLAY with you!!!!!

It will help if your husband can take time off so he can get 1:1 time with you after baby comes so he doesn't' feel like he's being kicked out of the nest. His baby sister somehow got him a truck too. He still remembers that it is the truck his sister gave him. [/quote]
