Hey mama,
Breathe - I know itâs difficult right now, especially when one of your babies really doesnât wanna be near youâŚthe rejection hurts. Youâre not alone mama.
Some children will feel like they know theyâre not gonna be the only one anymore or that they wonât be the baby of the family anymore and itâs normal. Get them involved in the process - the doctor visits and books about being an elder sibling all help to assimilate the older child to welcome new baby. Whatâs more, you can bond with your child too!
I think it would be good if you start reaffirming her/him that youâll still spend time with her/him. At least they feel assured that even though a sibling is coming, theyâll always have mummy time :)
Hang in there strong mama - itâs a phase and itâll blow over Iâm sure. Just reach out for support here from other mamas when you need it :)
