The older child needs to understand that your attitude towards him has not changed, that your heart just got bigger Therefore, while the baby is sleeping, find time to engage with the older child, talk and play with him. Remind him how proud he has grown, how much you love him and rely on him. Be understanding of his bouts of jealousy
