    I really wish I could help you. My twins are 4 years older than my youngest. Maybe he won't be jealous???

    I think it just works out naturally, I have three daughters very close in age and honesly I think they are closer because of the age thing!

    As long as you keep your older one involved (have him get you a diaper for the baby then praise him etc.) and always tell him what a great big brother he is and how much his baby brother (and you) love him he should be fine, my kids never had issues with each other until they got a bit older lol now it's all "that's mine" and "Leave me alone!" lol drives me nuts.
  • thank you so much this will be helpful to me :)
