preparing a toddler for a new arrival..

[~Hestia~]

I'm just subbing because this is something we're really beginning to think seriously about too.

I have heard that there are some good story books about becoming a big brother/sister - does anyone know titles or authors?
TIA

We got 'There's a House Inside my Mummy' by Giles Andreae & 'I Love my Baby Brother' by Anna Walker (we're having a little boy but they do have a Little Sister version too)

Moo LOVES these books and we probably read them half a dozen times per day, they're always his first choice!

DS has already been out of the cot and in his own bed for sometime so there arent any huge changes for him in that way. When he's going to sleep or we're just having a nice cuddle, after I've given him a kiss and told him Mummy loves him I rub my tummy and tell him baby loves him too. He then wraps his arms around my tummy and says 'cuddle her' and he really likes it.
