How to prepare your child for a new addition to the family
Bringing a newborn home the second or third time round is a little different than when you became parents for the first time. Introducing a new baby to your family ahead of your due date is important so that everyone can make the necessary adjustments and mentally prepare for the arrival of the newest addition to the family. It is especially important to prepare the older kids well and early. Here are some simple guidelines to encourage positive sibling relationships.
Tell your children early.
It may be tough for your older children to adjust to sharing parental attention (and affection) with the new baby. Prepare them early by explaining why the baby will need extra attention. The best time to do this is three to four months before your baby is due.
