jealousy

My son is 13 month old and I'm 28 weeks pregnant. I'm a single mother. Have been since my son and will be with my second baby unfortunately. Any advice on how to keep him from being super jealous?

Talk to him about the baby. Have him help you with the name. Let him interact with your belly. My son is 1 year and 9 months and he loves playing with my belly he will sing to his brother, and oddly enough named him  berry and he loves to feel his little brother move. Little things to get him used to someone he can be friends with. My son is a big mommas boy so I know the feeling.
