   Does anyone have any tips on the best way to prepare Kobe for the baby. He will be 28 months when baby is born and Im already feeling really guilty that he wont be the only one to get my attention. How do I make it not such a big shock for him?

   we really didnt do anything... my boy was a bit younger tho, he was 20 mths old when the baby was born.  i did talk about the baby tho and mention the baby in my tummy and when it comes out etc...  didnt buy a gift from the baby or anything like that but did make sure that he was out of the cot way before baby arrived so he didnt feel like he was being replaced.

   When taine was born, Jake was fascinated by him, and not really jealous at all, however one month later he has become quite territorial.  He doesn't mind taine, but doesn't like anyone picking him up, and will demand they put him down and pick jake up.
 We have been try9ing to have one-on-one attention with jake.  ON nice days we go to the park.  on saturdays we have swimming.  It seems to work a little.
