Greetings,
I'm pregnant w/ my second and due at the end of May. DH and I have a wonderful DD. Can anyone recommend any good books on parenting siblings? DH is one of 3 but I'm an only and I'm the one who will be home with them all day.

I've read up a bit on how to intoduce DD to the idea of the new baby and what to do when we bring the baby home, but I think I'm gonna need some more long-term help.
Thank you!

I haven't read it yet, but I have seen lots of recommendations for Siblings Without Rivalry by Farber and Mazlish. I got it as a Christmas gift last weekend, and it looks pretty good--although I don't see a lot about parenting really little ones, or about the early days when baby comes home. Maybe it's in there and I just don't see it yet.

I was given another book a while back called Going From One Child to Two. I forget who wrote it. The friend who gave it to me thought it was really helpful. It also talks about being pregnant with the second. So far I am only finding it so-so.

I'm also very interested in this, so I thought I'd bump it...
