Spit-up On My Shoulder

If you recently brought a new baby into the family, your toddler may be having a hard time adjusting. The older child will clamor for your attention more than ever, and just when the demands on your time have increased exponentially! Toddlers can particularly be jealous during baby’s feeding times because of the closeness you are sharing with the baby.

The solution- Special Toys. Special toys are toys you only bring out for your toddler to play with when you are going to nurse or bottlefeed. With practice, your toddler will start to look forward to their new sibling’s feeding times since it’s their chance to play with the special toys. You might even give them a box to decorate for these toys.

Give it a try! I’d love to hear how it works for you as I always appreciate your feedback.
