    DS is 3 and a half and loving "There is a house inside my mummy' too! It is cute with a rhyming text and quite easy to make subtle changes as you read it. We read it as "I cannot wait to meet them" etc instead of him/her because we are having twins. DS loves the story and he actually understands it really well. His fav bit is the picture of the mummy asleep on the couch - "Look, it's you Mum!"

    Not a fan of "there is a house inside mummy's tummy", myself..
    mind you I have yet to find s really good one, and I have been looking since I fell pregnant with baby number 2. We ended up getting 'where did i come from?' and just sort of 'self-edit' when we read it to the kids. I have found most of the books geared towards toddlers and young kids doesn't really explain anything, while books like 'where did I come from?' explain too much.
