Just curious for those of you pregnant with your second or just had your second or even 3rd or more. Is it hard to Rais 2 babies? Or has or did your first born get jealouse at your child's arrival? I have a 2 year old he loves my baby he lays his head on my tummy he talks to my tummy he plays peek a boo with my tummy etc. But when he gets mad he hits my tummy and yells no and tries to kick me. I'm just wondering if it might me hard or if maybe they change attitude when baby comes. My thing is what If rite now he's all happy but when het sees his little brother he gets mad for whatever reason and just doesn't like him. I've read on google it happens a lot with babies.

Are the tantrums the worst part about your baby jealousy?  Because I would like to be prepared for the worst or at least have a idea. @lousie_1986

My son is 4yrs old he will turn 5 3mons after his baby sister will be born and he is over the top happy and excited he wanted a sister in the worst way he got his wish he keeps saying he cant wait to see what she looks like abd kissea my belly and rubs it. He isnt jealous one bit. We talk a lot and make him a part of everything he responds well to that.

Mine were 18 months apart and the older one definitely got jealous, he started having tantrums to get more attention for a while... It was tricky first few months but he eventually got used to not being the only child. Now they play great together but I think my youngest (now 2) is going to be tough, as she's very very clingy and insecure... I'll just have to wait and see!

I'm pregnant with baby number 2. I have a 5 yr old daughter and having a boy this time. We talk a lot about the baby. My mom tells me I involve her too much but I ignore her lol. My daughter can't wait to meet him even though she was hoping for a girl. My daughter gets so mad sometimes and is a hitter and kicker. Before I was pregnant it was game on. She didn't care where she hit. After the baby came around and I told her she would have to be careful or she would hurt the baby she still has outbreaks but she doesn't hit me as bad and if she does hit me it is in the arm or leg. Talking is best. No matter how young they are they enjoy a good big person talk lol.

Thank you ladies :) I could use any advise or stories I can get. This means a lot to me and I am trying to stop him from hitting me but he cries I'd I say no and all of a sudden I break down too

I am mom of 3 and talking to your child is the best thing. With my kids they have big brother and big sister shirts and they pick something out for the baby from the baby store etc.

I'm a mom of 2 and have one on the way. My daughter really loved her brother when he was born but every brother and sister has a fight. It's like there made to fight with eachother lol. U just have to make sure u set our a special time for each child so that way nobody feels left out. My kids know that they are never ever allowed to hit there mommy even when they are mad. So if it was me I would try and stop that behavior before the baby comes. It is hard to raise more than one child, but I was 17 when I had my daughter and I just kept my head up. You have to believe that you can do it. Trust me it is going to be really stressful at times, but I promise parenting kinda comes natural ^_^ good luck with ur kids. The fact that ur even asking and that ur worried means that ur already a good mom ♡
