Indie's very caring and loving; her recent nursery report even said how she helps out with the younger babies in her room, giving them their dummies when they're crying. She loves her baby doll and enjoys feeding her her bottle - followed by patting her on the back and putting her in her bed to 'sleep' and trying to change her nappy too. Although she seems pretty ready by herself, these are the few things we did to help her understand a bit more, and to get her involved with the pregnancy.
Finally we've let her help with sorting out his baby things. We've now washed and got out all of her old baby equipment such as the swing and bouncer. She's loved putting her baby in them and 'playing mum' and although not the best, she's even been enjoying the bouncer for herself haha.
We think we're as ready as we can be for baby to arrive now. A 20 month age gap still does seem a bit scary - two in nappies, double pram, a demanding baby AND toddler - but I think we're going to be just fine. Any tips would be amazing though, and wish us lots of luck haha!
I can't give you any advice but you'll be amazing! You are such a cute little family and cannot wait to hear of news of your little boy. Good luck xx
ReplyDeleteSounds as though you're doing a great job of getting her ready Hun and she is adjusting well already! Xx
ReplyDeleteI think you will be amazing, you are doing a fantastic job already, it sounds like she has a really good understanding of what is going on. I can't wait to see pictures of your new arrival. Your pregnancy seems to have flown by, although I am sure it doesn't feel like that to you. xxx
