I'm 7 weeks pregnant with number two and my 7 year old ds doesn't know yet. I was going to wait until at least 12 weeks and give him a special big brother present. I've tried to broach the subject about babies and asked him if he would like to be a big brother and his reply was along the lines of 'no way, I don't want any stupid babies staying here. It would just cry and wake me up!' There is quite a big age gap and I'm starting to wonder if I should tell him earlier to let him get used to the idea. The only problem is that I know he wouldn't be able to keep quiet and everyone would know! Has anyone had a similar experience? Any tips?
