Kids don’t understand?
I have 9yr old 7 yr old a toddler and a baby, my older kids apparently don’t understand that we’re expecting another one, we talk about me being pregnant and they don’t have any reaction, like they don’t understand or they just don’t care ?♀️? My oldest is a boy and i think maybe boys are not as curious as girls because if i would start talking about pregnancy in front of my 9yr old niece she would ask us right away, and she even said that if i get pregnant now my baby would be born in july (she doesnt know we’re expecting) and that proves my kids didn’t even tell anyone.
Maybe because they’re already used to you having babies, they don’t see it as a “big deal” . You know ? If it was something they weren’t used to then they would probably be shocked and excited. Your two older ones have already gone through this 2-3 times before . But that’s just my opinion. I’m sure they’ll be excited once the little one is here :)
Not sure but maybe they do t care they may be used to it since they are the oldest. I am not sure if you ever talked to them about pregnancy. My kids are 6,5,4 and 1. Everyone but the baby understands what it means to be pregnant have already talked about names and what they want a brother or sister. They all know baby is super tiny in my belly and it takes a while to grow. But that is because they have witnessed my past pregnancies. They are very excited but they are all girls so maybe you are right maybe it is a girl thing?
Maybe once you start go show and they see a nice big round tummy or when the baby starts to kick then they will get more excited :) I’m sure it will get better. Although, when my brother was born, i told my mom to take him back! he’s smelly and he’s loud and bring him back i don’t like him lol ..
My mom had my youngest brother when I was 13. I thought she and my dad were joking about her being pregnant until she started throwing up in the mornings.... ?
