We're Having a Baby: With helpful tips for adapting to a new baby (Campbell Big Steps, 4)

I bought this book for my 2 1/2 year old daughter a couple of months before the birth of my second child. She already knew that Mum was having a baby but as I had never spent the night away from her before I wanted her to understand what was going to happen once the baby was due. She already had and loved the potty training book from this series, so I knew she found the flaps/push and pull elements engaging. I often find that these kinds of educational children's books don't tend to keep her interest. So the interactive parts used in this series are very helpful in keeping her attention on what might be an otherwise 'boring' book. Each page also has tips for parents on how to introduce the impending arrival of a sibling to a young child. Most of the tips are quite obvious but still a nice idea. We read this book a couple of times a week up to the birth of her little brother and when the time came she was very well prepared for what would happen. My baby is now 5 months old and my daughter still sometimes chooses to read this book, and talks about the things that happened when her brother was born- Remembering that Granny and Grandad looked after her etc. Overall, a good tool in explaining the process of a new siblings arrival to a toddler in a fun and engaging way. Great for sparking a conversation with your child. Nothing can truly prepare a toddler for what changes a new baby will bring to the family dynamic but this is a good way to start!

My 2.5 year old loved this book as this was one of the things we use to introduce and get her ready for her sibling. She still loves its and it’s been months. Love the story, great intro for kids expecting siblings, would make a great gift!

The best book we bought to help our 2 year old process my pregnancy and arrival of baby sister. Fun pictures, engaging lift-the-flap pieces and great tips for parents at the bottom of each page. Love this book!

Lovely book, lovely pictures with pullouts. Helped my son to kind of get his head around what was ahead of him but rather than focusing on a new baby coming to the house, it focuses on mammy being away and grandparents minding them during this time. It's a little specific for my liking.

Bought this book for my 1.5 year old when I was expecting. He loved it and we have read it over and over even after baby was born. Great for preparing them for little one coming. Love these books as they are great for little hands.

Bought for my grand daughter who loves reading. Great book, quality & service.

This book really helped in the run up to giving birth with my second. We read it every so often and it opened conversations with my 3 year old. When it came to it, they knew exactly what was going on and what to expect.

Fantastic for helping my toddler understand he was getting a sibling and has gentle tips on each page and talk points to help ease him into being a big brother. It really worked for us to prepare him for the baby’s arrival and he still enjoys reading it now

Good book. Engaging.

This book helped our little prepare for their siblings. Our little LOVED this book.

Ein schönes Buch zum gemeinsam Durchblättern und schön interaktiv gemacht, man kann mal Vorhänge aufmachen oder das Auto ziehen, wie in anderen Büchern der Reihe auch. Dazu noch ein paar Tipps. Wir finden das Buch super.

A very nice book for upcoming babies. I love these books and this writer generally. I bought before the nursery book and it helped us alot, was so much fun.

Telling the story helps with the current kids to have a better initial bonding with the incoming child.
