Preparing a Child for a New Sibling: Overview

Journal Title: Journal of Nurse Midwifery and Maternal Health - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 2

Abstract

Parents spend a lot of energy on preparations, and after the baby arrives, much of the family’s attention involves caring for the newborn. All this change can be hard for older siblings to handle. But parents can prepare kids for an addition to the family. Discussing the pregnancy in terms that make sense to kids, making some arrangements, and including kids in the care of the newborn can make things easier for everyone.
