April, I'm totally hoping that the huge belly (with baby boy kicking around inside) helps Marlowe actually "get" the fact that there is a human being in there! I'm planning a homebirth so there won't be a hospital, but I'm looking forward to that first meeting! so sweet! xoxo EAM]]> In reply to April.

Hi Kate! That floral getup is actually a jumpsuit that my Mom got her in Europe and it didn't even have a tag. I tried to track it down to link to it, but no luck. Sorry! EAM]]> In reply to Kate.

Everyone had me freaked out about how my (then) almost three year old would react to her baby brother, so we had lots of discussions with her early on! We bought her a couple of books about welcoming a new baby, but she didn’t seem to completely understand until the end of my pregnancy when my belly was HUGE. I honestly think she had a harder time adjusting while I was in the third trimester than after the baby came.

We made sure to introduce her to him when we had no other visitors at the hospital. We wanted to give her that time to take it in, and have a special family moment (that we made sure to capture on video, because it’s the cutest). We also bought a few new gifts and activities to keep her occupied/excited as people came by to meet our little guy. Apparently it worked, because she adores him! Well, so far anyway… he’s only three months. 😉

1) be sure not to hype up the new baby as something fun and new play friend etc. Babies don’t get to that stage for at least 18months in their eyes and that’s a long and disappointing time to wait.
2) when they arrive refer to them as ‘your brother/sister’ in conversation, so they feel ownership and connection. This has been a strong message in our family and I can sense how much it has cemented their bond.

Great ideas, thanks for sharing! I also love the floral PJs Marlowe is wearing in the post. Where are they from?
