Pregnancy Explained

I have a son 3 1 / 2 years and now I am 3 months pregnant. Everyone seems to think that I should start explaining my pregnancy to him now, but I think I should wait until I start to show. Anyway, I have no idea how to break it down into terms he can understand. Does anyone have any advice?

Maybe you could say, 'Mom seeks to develop a baby in her belly "and as time passes, you can say more about that a little at a time! ultrasound images Show him, let him help you choose baby things, etc.! My son is three and half years and I know he would be so happy to become a big brother!

Good luck and congratulations!

I asked my 4 year old who was 3 when I got pregnant if he wanted a lil brother or sister to play with and he said yes, (he was the only child) So of course he wanted someone to play with and now that IM 34 weeks and 4 days, he is really happy that (the baby) is coming, its so cute when he approached my belly and said, Hi my baby are you from be here today. Good luck with your 3 year old

If it is 3 1 / 2, you must speak to a level they understand.
You, the bread in the oven ve "," and there is bread on the go ".
And when the baby arrives. Tell him he is now the big brother.

I have a year and 7 years to 3 years and a half years. two boys .. theres really no way to know is 3 and a half, he just let it go to dr appointments with you if you can, let him feel the heart of the stomach, saying HES will have a little brother or sister . let you help choose baby clothes, etc. just talk to him every day for the baby, he'll understand, my boy is very happy to come a baby.

I let my 3 and a half years to help select vintage clothing, the other day, and toys for the baby, it gives them something to look forward and like to help. also, let your child know you love them as much as you like the new baby, do not want them to feel left out or think of you tryin 'to replace them.

I had a awseome book that my daughter has had great fun reading called "Mommy laid an egg. cannot play fantastic, but unfortunately, remember the author.

I told my son that Mommy was having a baby for him to play with and every day I give my belly kisses and hugs and tell her he loves her little brother ... im hoping he does as well when I get home from the hospital on Friday ... as im being induced on Wednesday ... Good luck to you and congratulations on adding new =]

I agree with the person says a few books and read them now .... About becoming a big brother, mom had a baby, and so on .. It took my 2 older children in this age a good 4-5 months to really recover and be happy they got a sister .. My son wanted me to take the baby where it came when I started reading the books. lol. Then he finally realized how cool it will be a big brother thanks to the one that is going to be a big brother-type books.

I would wait 2 show u start. My kids were so little when the next came that they did not really not what was happening or really cared about what was happening. if it does not ask, I would not say anything. the largest u get his request, I can not tell him.

Good luck and congratulations

Just tell him he is a brother. My neighbor has a year 1 1 / 2 old and just had a baby. She understands all the time as "Megan, do you want to help Mom YOUR baby nurse? As it is a good thing for her too.

I would tell him now, just tell her mom is a baby growing in her belly, he read books about it (books for kids) as soon as you tell him the longer he has to.
