    Hi ladies, my little guy knows a change is going to happen very soon, but obviously he doesn't know how much of a change there will be! What can I do to help him deal with any jealousy issues?

    I've heard comments from other mothers to give even more attention to #1 in the first couple of weeks. anything else? DS will be in daycare 3 days a week at first so that will help me out a bit.

    Thanks for any advice!

    I'm in the same situation right now, my second baby will born on September, and someone gave two tips: 1. try to make the new bed as soon as possible so the first born doesn't feel as she is be displaced from her crib, and 2. make her feel the new baby as hers
