Hey, was hoping some of you can share some stories about your eckies around newborn babies.
My boy is almost 2 and we are due in December. I have been warned he will get jealous and potentially attack baby. It was also suggeste that as i will be busy with baby he will go off me and only like my husband. Additionally the stress of baby crying will make him scream more and its been suggested ill throw him outside.
Echo has never shown a jealous bone in his body. He spends equal time with all of us. I handle him the most, but he will still hang out with hubby and the dog. He also loves watching children yell and play when we are out.
Who has seen their eckie around babies?
Has anyones non jealous eckie turned jealous over a baby? Any information on how they react or cope with babies crying etc would be greatly appreciated.
Want to maybe start thinking about it early so we continue to be a happy household. No way is echo going out or being banned from being around our baby. Supervised yes...until trust is established and everyone is comfortable.
