Did your dc's sense when your next baby was on its way?

No.

Yes my 3 year old was the one who told me I was having a baby today, and he was right.

No, although my 5 year old said he thought we'd have one more baby (I was on the mini pill and DH had a vasectomy booked) and the next day I got a surprise BFP.

I think so. My dd was 17 months when ds was born and she became very clingy in the weeks before the birth.

Before we even knew (and this pg was a 'surprise' - we had been infertile for 7 yrs previous to DTs, now aged 4 and had fertility treatment) Dt2 said, in his sleep "Yes, mummy, you can have another baby. You just need to do the thing that makes babies and another one will start"

It turned out I was 4 weeks pg at that point, though we didn't find out for another 2 weeks....


We haven't even had the birds and the bees talk with him yet.

DS1 was 29 months when DS2 was born and had dropped his naps completely for a good few months - except on the day when DS2 was born where he fell asleep in the living room for over 3 hours allowing DP to be in the bedroom with me watching DS2s be born (planned homebirth) so I'm not sure if he knew his brother was coming or not but he did helpfully have a big sleep that day!
