I always wanted my children to be atleast a year apart .. My kids are 17 months apart .. but I never knew how hard it would be trying to get my son to adjust to having a baby around.. he's not use to being around other kids because we don't have small kids his age in our family ... 😞 any advice on trying to get him to adjust to having a little sister would help.

Well i only have a 3 yr old and plan on having another kid next year but what i would recommend and i dont know if this would work but wprth a shot try to get him more involved with her giving her a soft hug or kiss on the cheek and letting him hold her for a bit i know he is really young yet but he will slowly bond with her but just make sure u dont give her more attention then him because then he wont like it....hope this helps!

@jsandhu19.js he fed her and held her but he's kind of rough.. he would sometimes try to "hit at her" but I stop him before he does .

My nephew is 3 and his sister is 1
He did not like her for a very long time. I guess they have to adjust to having another baby around. He even hit her too. (He got the asswhooping of a life time)
But he never did it again. But over time he warmed up to her
And his parents always talked to him and they refer to her as "his baby" so he's actually protective of her now. And thinks she's His baby 🤗
But it was rough

@torrey_ yes he hit her today and I was so hurt .. I don't think he did it on purpose .. I don't know why he did it tbh , he's a super rough kid and it's so hard . I didn't think he liked her at first bc when he seen her he pointed at her and rolled his eyes and didn't want to look at her anymore . . 😣😝 but sometimes he's happy some times he's mean and not interested.

@momlife365, that's how my nephew was. And we would've never thought he would hit her but we saw him doing repeatedly on camera
Like it was casual. But after that whooping he never did it again and he loves He little sister. It does taking getting adjusting to. He's not mean to her anymore but it was a process

@momlife365 yeah he seems to feel like she took his spot which you need to make sure you give him more attention and try to give him time with her slowly and talk more to him. All kids do that at the beginning my nephew did but he will realize soon enough just be patient:)
