Reddit reviews My New Baby

This is one book we enjoyed and this one was his favorite.

Good luck!

Our son will be 3 in November. We got these books a few months ago and he loved them. Our daughter is two weeks old now.

Second all of this. Also pointing out all the fun special things he can do that the baby can't ("only big boys get to eat dessert!" "only big boys get to play with cars!"). If you haven't already, you might read some books with him about being a big brother, like I'm A Big Brother or My New Baby.

Jealosuy was certainly an issue. A lot of that was on me. When I was pregnant, I should have done a better job of doing more non-nursing stuff with LO. I read, had cuddle time, but, honestly, in those last few months, nursing was just easier!

We read books about the new baby and what to expect when she arrives. The Rachel Fuller one was my favorite. We also talked a lot about how big sisters share and how important it is that the baby get milk so she can grow and play.

What you could try is getting into a routine where you only nurse during certain times of the day and make that a habit now. The weeks after the baby are hectic and stressful for everyone, especially the new sibling so if they can fall back on habits that are comforting, it will help a lot!

The other thing you can do is find something he likes to do and start doing that right after nursing. Don't necessarily cut nursing short but start talking about the fun thing a few minutes into nursing so that he starts to build an association that "something fun happens when nursing ends"... good luck :)
