Hello mumma's. 👋🏻

I need a bit of help or advice..

I'm due any day now with a little girl, however my 2 year old has become very naughty. He does not listen anymore, when it comes to dinner time he chucks his food on the floor then cries. Also I've recently seen him in the nursery messing around with little ones stuff. He tries to hit me when I tell him off.

My mum said that he could be feeling very emotional as he's becoming a big brother and its a daunting experience.

I'm not sure what to do. Has anybody else been in a similar position?

Children no matter what age tend to play up when they know things are changing especially when it comes to a new addition to the family. He's so young and change is always unsettling. I would expect this kind of behaviour to last even after baby is here until he feels more settled. I think @sara-lou has given some good advice. You should defo try that but yeah I agree, make sure your giving him attention. it's probably what he's seeking anyway.

Continue as normal as much as you can. Discipline his bad behaviour but make sure your praising the good. I'm sure you do but make sure he's still getting lots of attention, include him when your talking about baby or putting baby bits together. But don't make too much of a fuss. It's perfectly normal for changes of behaviour just before & after babies born. Once babies here make sure if people visit they say hello to him first & make a bit of a fuss before they go to baby. It's confusing for them & they'll fight for attention however they can get it so it's just trying to keep things as normal as you can. I started doing time out for bad behaviour when Morgan started playing up & it really helped. But I also praise him when he does something good. Big or small lol.
