Fellow parents! How should I tell my 2yr old?

congrats! i would keep in simple tell her she is going to be a big sister make it sound exciting and fun. tell her that it mens she will have a new borther or sister in X amount of months (based on how far you are) invlove her in helping to pick out think for the baby room and clothes and clors ect. as it gets closer and you start to get bigger you can explain that the baby is growing in mommy's tummy and you can incude her at the big ultrasound to find out if it will be a boy or girl. once you know start calling the baby by name. have her pick out a few special out fits for the baby from her, have her pick out an age approprite toy or stufed animal as a welcome presant when the baby is born and get her a 'big sister' gift from you guys and the nee baby for when she comes to see the new baby. make the whole thing a positive experiance and she will be excited let her help whre she can abd be part of the whole thing. good luck and i hope that helps!

Congratulations, I am sure as things naturally develop the conversation will get around to Mom being pregnant soon enough... Children are very observant, and I am sure she will notice the changes pretty quickly. I read my little girl a story book every night, so I would probably get a book about having a sbling and read that and let the conversation naturally develop. I am sure she will think the whole thing is very exciting - if she does not seem to be grasping the concept, why not take her with you when you shop for some baby things so she can see you are buying for someone else rather than her...

I think that you could read your two year old a picture book about a new baby brother or sister. I like You'll Soon Grow Into Them by Pat Hutchins. I think you could say you have a baby in your tummy. Over time your little girl will see your bump grow. Congratulations on your pregnancy. I wish you a happy and healthy pregnancy.

First off, congratulations to you! Now, being two years old, keep it simple. Just tell her she is going to be having a baby brother or sister soon. You will probably be bombarded with questions (as much as she is able to anyways). Keep the answers simple, no need for elaborate details. She will still probably not totaly understand untill you bring the new arrival home form the hospital. YOur "baby belly" will be a source of curiosity and amusement for her as it gorws. You can tell her if you wish that is where her baby sibling is (be ready for more questions, again, keep the answers simple). You can encourage her to "talk to" the baby in there if you like, sometimes kids love doing this. It may help her with early bonding in fact. Again, congatulations and good luck.
