Just wanted to say that I found out Im having another child he/she will be here the first of June of 2004 and I cant wait. Any one got any suggestions on a second child I would really appreciate it Im kinda nervous about how I will deal with my first being only 3 and being able to let her know she is not being pushed aside for this second child. Please help! Thanks

What i did for my children to except a new baby was pretty easy!
Let your child know that he or she is going to have a baby, A good way for your child to except this is everynight from now on, have your child get a book and you all sit down and read, you tell your child, Your New baby loves books, lets read to it, this is a good way for you to relax also and not have to run after a 3 year old!
Have your child talk and sing to the unborn baby, your unborn baby will hear it and when it is born will reconize the voice!
Have your child go to every doctors appointments if possible this is a good way for your child to except the baby and see the progress!
Remember this is not just you and your Hubby's unborn baby, This is you, your Hubbys and your childs baby!!!!
My children never felt like they were left out, they felt they were all part of what took place in the past nine months!
Your child will continue to help you out after the baby is born, and also continue to sit down and read to your children!
You'll do fine! The sibling rivalry does'nt start till they hit teenage years...lol
Good Luck!
