She acts like a real baby. Right now she's learning how to use the potty & eating on her on.
My son screams bloody murder at my mw appts. I think the doppler really freaks him out. I just started holding a stuffy type doll in my arms and kissing and shhhing it, and rocking it while telling him it was a baby. At first he would just throw the doll when I'd give it to him, but then he started to catch on to the game. I then started to tell him there was a baby in my tummy and now he pats and shhh's my belly. I still get headbutts and hard hits when he gets excited, but for the most part he is way more gentle. But I hear ya on the clingyness, he wants me to carry him a lot so I try to make it up to him with morning/night time cuddles. Good luck momma! Remember they're still babies too. 33+2 with a 20m old :)
They say thats when a baby is getting out of the way for another child old wives tales but its very true.I had a miscarriage in Jan but before that my 8 month old just started walking and eating on his own and was very whinny which was around the time I was pregnant.Now that Im pregnant again he is the same he takes off diapers and pees in his pot on his own and wants to be babied...They know something is happening but dnt know how to deal with it
I take her to every appt with me. I talk to her when i talk to the baby. Every time she hear the baby heartbeat she crys!
I have a 3yr old at first he didn't get it until I explained to him mommy has a baby in her stomach and took him to appointments and once heard the heartbeat he start rubbing my stomach and talking to her. So I think maybe involving her will help
