  Getting ready for another baby can be tough, for both the parents as well as for the to-be sibling. It’s not only essential for the parents to be physically and mentally prepared for the new addition to the family but also to get your first child mentally ready for what’s to come. Telling them how and when is up to you. Your child’s age also plays a part. It’s a good idea to start talking about 3-4 months early. You can start by generally chatting with them about babies, and then eventually tell them that your family is going to have one.

Try to make them feel excited and positive for their sibling, so they will understand that it’s not just about the baby, it’s about every...
