I’ll never forget how my 21-month-old reacted when I gave birth to her little sister. I wasn’t even supposed to hold her, because I was still recovering , but Inara looked so in need of a hug that I scooped her up and held her tight. Then I took her to look at the baby. The next thing I felt was pain – she’d bitten me on the shoulder.
At that moment it became clear, Navigating life with two kids under age 2 was going to be tricky. That’s not to say it isn’t amazing too ,
there’s nothing more heartwarming than seeing your toddler fall in love with the baby and, though she’s still in diapers herself, take on the role of big sister and protector.
Even a toddler who likes her new sister is apt to get jealous, your toddler may try to hit the baby. A child might want to say many things, but she doesn’t have the words to tell you what she wants..
One way to guard against jealousy is to encourage your child to be involved with the baby. “When I’m giving the baby a bath, I let Inara gently rub her legs and after bath I let her apply cream. She loves being Mommy’s helper!
In India I had my family to look after my kids.Even though I found it difficult to manage . I thought it’s going to be worse when I move to Saudi Arabia since i had to look after kids and manage house works together but with the grace of god it’s working well and they are best friends at their own space. Even though i had a sister we didn’t grow up together since she studied in hostel and then got married. Can’t wait to see my daughters grow up together.Best of friends forever..
