My LO is very jealous of babies. If it's a new baby she'll usually cry if I hold them. She lets me hold her baby cousin now because she's used to it, but she still looks at me like I'm doing something wrong. This is what I'm most worried about when having a new baby!

Shes fine when I hold/play with her cousins, but I have a feeling that girlfriend is going to go all diva-pants on me when we have another LO

DD is naturally very clingy to me and such a mama's girl... so I was worried about this too, but she instantly loved her brother and was so curious about him! she shares everything of hers with him, tries to cover him with blankets, and feeds him all her fake food. it's so sweet.

@Mrs. High Heels: LO was the same way except she is a Daddy's girl! She loves feeding the baby her felt, plastic and wood food!

@autumnlove: isn't it amazing how they instantly fell into that older sibling role? how did they know exactly what to do?

She was really interested in the baby and helping out with the baby from the start. I can definitely put her to work! There is some jealousy for sure. If the baby cries, she needs to cry. I could do without that one.

I wonder about this, too. LO is really good at playing with her dolls and likes to rock them, feed them, and change them. But she's has shown dislike of my holding other babies.
