Ever since the birth of Nicodemus, we had been very careful in making Nat feel as comfortable as he can with the addition of a new member to our family. We went to such an extent as to buy a bicycle and bringing it to the hospital, and then telling him when Daddy brought him there to visit Mummy and Nic, that Nic gave him the bicycle. It worked, we think.
As time went by, we try to give Nat as much time as we possibly can so that he does not feel left out. Nat says goodnight to his brother every night and adds the "I love you" as well. I hope this lasts. Somehow, I have a sneaking suspicion that once Nic is able to walk and snatch toys away from Nat, this may all change. But at least for now, I am happy with the progress.
