“When big sister meets her baby sibling for the first time… through the screen 💕👶”. 💜 How to Prepare Your Kid for Another Sibling
🪷 1. Start Early Conversations
– Tell them about the baby in simple, positive words.
– Show ultrasound photos or baby kicks — involve them early!
🗣 “There’s a tiny baby growing in mommy’s tummy who’ll love you so much.”

🧸 2. Involve Them in the Journey
– Let your child help in small ways — choosing baby clothes, decorating room, packing hospital bag.
– They’ll feel important and included, not replaced.

💬 3. Acknowledge Their Feelings
– It’s normal for them to feel jealous or confused.
– Listen patiently and reassure: “Mommy and Daddy’s love is big enough for both of you.”

🕰️ 4. Maintain Routines
– Keep bedtime stories, hugs, and rituals unchanged.
– Stability gives emotional comfort.
⸻
🧡 5. Plan Special One-on-One Time

⸻
🎁 6. Make the Baby’s Arrival Exciting
– Have the new baby “gift” something to the elder sibling 🎁
– This simple trick builds instant bonding and excitement!
