baby is like leave me alone
My son was just barely 16 months when we had our second boy. We didn't really do anything. Just have him rub my belly and tell him that's your brother, or the baby. Im sure he had no clue, and didn't put two and two together after we had the baby. At first he acted a little weird, then he was curious and wanted to pat the baby, really hard though. Put a blanket on him, stuff like that. We just watched him really close, but let him touch his brother, and after about 4 weeks hes really sweet with him now. He tries to give him the pacifier, his blanket. Kisses his head. Its really cute. Im sure your son will do fine.
I am the fourth oldes out of 12 kids and I have a 8 week old daughter so when I adopted, there wasn't much to explain. But when I was 4 my younger brother was 3 and my mom was pregnat with one of my sisters. My mom and dad explained everything to him and told him they would always love him. My dad took my brother out a lot before and after the baby was born and called it "Special Daddy and Nate Time" They went out to eat, went to the park, amusement parks and a lot of other places. The day the baby was born, before my mom and dad left for the hospital my dad and mom gave Nate a special watch that would flip over and when you flipped it over it said "To the new best big brother in the world Nate" and the date his first little sister was born. And the next day my dad got the time enscripted too. Make sure you have your son put the special thing you give him in a special place. My brother still has the watch and remembers all of the good times he had with my dad and my mom and everybody else.
when i was pregnant with my second i set up everything and showed my son with a dolly-his baby- what all of it was used for. they are 13 mo apart. and i set aside an alarm every day that it was just mommy and jake for one hour and kept that same hour every day before and after baby was born, he know he would get one hour of one on one time no matter what when the timer went off.
cute baby;)
I take baths with my babies for the first year of their lives and none of them hate baths….

QUEBEC REPRESENT LOL
take time for yourself an hour a week you need it and it really helps you allows you to still feel special even if its getting your hair done also make sure you and your partner have some time together and keep communicating and dont take anything for granted or expect things
babies dont all fit into books but dont let anyone make you feel bad for what you are doing were constantly learning
crying baby
I read the other answers and I agree with the blanket thing. That works very well.
There is something else you can do for when the baby is actually in the house. Make sure you never yell at your dog when the baby is around. You want your dog to know that the baby is a good thing. Before you have the dog sniff the baby, have him sit and give him a treat and then proceed to let him sniff out the baby. Make sure that the baby eats before the dog does, and dont feed the dog until the baby (and everyone else) is done eating. Some dogs tend to think the baby is BELOW them on the alpha status, which is what you DONT want. You want the baby to be above him, and for him to know it.
I would read Sti Stay Fetch. It can give you some tips on how to be the alpha, and to teach your kids how to control the dog too: http://www.kingdomofpets.com/dogobediencetraining/?hop=beer1981
"SitStayFetch offers a free consultation with every order!" If you order you can email them with a problem you have, and they will give you really good advise about it. Which I think is a good thing.
Hope that helps! And congrats on the new baby! :]
Buy them baby dolls of there own and show them how to hold the baby correctly in a way that will not hurt them. Explain to them the rules of being around the baby. That if they want to hold the baby they need to be sitting down on the couch and just tell them they need to only walk around the crib and look were they are walking so that they don't trip.
You don't!!!
1.) Baby registry on line helps (walmart is easy)
2.) Prepair work to take off time for bonding, 1-2 weeks. You can take upto 3months.
3.) Take a baby CPR class.
4.) stock up on diapers and wipes.
5.) watch a shack en baby syn drum video.

and you should be good to go..
I'm in the same situation. My Miniature daschund is my baby and now that I am having a baby I am a little nervous. I actually read about this in a book. The most important thing is to make sure you spend alone time with the dog and baby together. Obviously your child comes first, but if you're sitting on the couch let the dog sit next to you and speak in a soothing tone. Let her smell the baby and get used to her scent.
Good luck!
