wonder how much he knows, and whether it's unsettling him

nanny started this week. she has been for days before, so not sure how he'd know that this is different (i.e. she's here to stay)

baby due any time

for the last couple of days he's been beside himself when i've put him down for his nap and at bedtime



would appreciate any words of advice...

how old is he? I would say yes, just the process of change, he will settle, I had DS2 5 months ago DS1 is 5 and was a bit odd and wobbly for the first 6 weeks or so, but now they are great pals and we have settled really well into a routine that works most days, lots of cuddles and reassurance and getting DS1 to help were key, eg: he is the Cheif Muslin Square getter! Good luck, it's tough the change and a new baby, just try and relax about it all, it can't be forced, when you see you children laughing together its just the most magic feeling ever! xx

thanks carocaro

he's 2.1yo, so obv understands less about the changes ahead than your ds1 did, but i think all the arrangements can't have gone unnoticed
