Table of Contents

Introduction
The arrival of a new baby at your house is a major event and one that will have a strong impact on your older child(ren). We all worry about how the older child will react and how we can help him or her adjust. This new baby will change the older childs position in the family and be a competitor for love and attention. Through all this, we must work to keep our childs self-esteem intact.
One way you can help is by letting your child know what to expect. With that in mind, this story of the arrival of a new baby in KoKo Bears family will guide your child through the key stages of your pregnancy, delivery, and homecoming.
To help you make this a smooth transition, there are tips and suggestions for parents on every page. You can skim these silently while you and your child read about KoKo. For more detailed material and additional tips, you may wish to refer to my companion book, Practical Parenting WELCOMING YOUR SECOND BABY.
While it will be necessary to give your older child extra love and attention and to make time for your marital relationship, dont make the mistake of not taking care of that necessary and very important personYOU!
Sincerely,

For me? asks KoKo happily.

Dont introduce the idea of a new baby too soon if your child is very young. Nine months can be too long to understand. Save most of your preparations far closer to your due date.
Speak of the baby as ours, not as mine or your childs.
Tie your due date to an event rather than a month. After Christmas, or when the snow disappears are easier concepts for a child to understand.

Let your child help you pack your hospital bag in advance and think of things to put in it. Include a picture of him or her and a drawing to help decorate your room.
Practice using the telephone with your child. This skill will be important when you are at the hospital and accessible only by phone.
Have your sitters instructions written out in advance so your departure will be smoother and more relaxed.

Some older children show only minimal interest or even hostility towards a baby. Others are visibly delighted. Both reactions are normal and neither attitude predicts future sibling relationships.
Consider hiding small presents in the house that your child can be told to find when you call from the hospital.
Let your child help make the phone calls to announce the babys arrival.

Continuation of familiar routines is reassuring to a child whose mother is in the hospital.
Place mothers picture in your childs room or ask your child to caretake something of mothers such as a piece of jewelrywhile she is gone.
Before going to the hospital, tape your own readings of your childs favorite bedtime stories and books. Say good night at the end of each tape.

Let someone other than mother carry the new baby when the children first meet. This helps the older child feel less displaced.
Tape your childs first meeting with the new baby to preserve that moment for future replay.
Let friends and relatives know that this first day you would not like to have drop-in visitors.

We wont know that until the baby is born, answers MaMa Bear.
