Have you told your other children?

[HaveWool~Will Felt]

Wondering if any of you have shared the great news with your other children, yet????

I have a 6.5 yo & 4.5 yo.....I could't keep my shout...I told them!!!
They are very excited!!!!

ive told my ds- but he is only 21 months, so im not sure if he totally gets it yet. ive told him there is a baby in my belly, just like he used to live in my belly.
i hope she/he sticks around!!!!!

nope, we didn't tell him, but i think he knows (at least on some level) anyway. he has made a number of references to babies recently. at one point he brought me a lego thing he made that he said was a baby & showed me the arms and legs and a head and hat ... and another one time, he was rocking an imaginary baby and told me while i was sleeping, he was taking care of the baby.

i couldn't keep my mouth shut either

my boys are also very excited. especially the oldest. he's been begging for more siblings.

I think ds was trying to tell us! He weaned at 3DPO and then about 4 days before I got a he became obsessed with my belly! All he kept saying was, "want to hug your tummy." And he would pat and kiss and lie his head on my belly. I really think he knew before we did!

We've told him that there's a baby in my belly and that she would take a long, long time to get ready to come out. We're not talking about it too much with him because 9 mos must be an eternity to a toddler. I think when I start to show it will make more sense to him.

That is SO wild! Very cool, though!


I haven't told my son yet. I'll tell him when I start to get a belly....at this point, telling him there's a baby in my belly will make about as much sense to him as if I told him there was a baby in *his* belly.

I haven't told them.....I'm sure they will tell every person we know, so for now mum's the word
