Jealousy ?

ok my son just turned 2 on july 10 th
i have been married to my husband for about 7 months (who isnt his biological dad but has been in his life more than his real dad and not to mention he never comes in contact with his real dad- so i think  he believes this is his "daddy")
and im 20 wks pregnant with another lil boy
my sons never been the jealous type i baby sit my friends baby who is 1 month and no problems he likes to help feed the baby and ect.
also when we go around other children he shares his toys and snacks


but recently everytime i give my husband a kiss or he gives me a kiss
my son will bust out "me?,me?" and will also expect a kiss
at first i thought he was jealous of my husband but i noticed if i give my husband a kiss anthony (my son) will want a kiss from me and if my husband gives me a kiss anthony will expect a kiss from him


so do you think this is just a way of him wanting to fit in or ????
just curious because he recently started doing this

This is very normal and I believe we had a post in a few days ago asking the same thing, it is a bit of jealousy I think even if he had been the bio Dad you would get the same response, let him see this often do not stop, it is good for children to see love ,let him join in as you say ....a threesome cuddle each time so he knows he is part of you both ...good luck he sounds like a lot of fun, make sure his 'now Daddy' plays games and has fun with him....
