    I waited until around 11 weeks when I had the initial ultrasound to tell my 3 year old daughter. She was amazed at what she saw on the screen, and it made it real to her. I am 38 weeks, and she is taking it very well. Everywhere we go she brags about her sister in mommy's tummy, and tells everyone her sister's name. She is extremely excited.

    wait until you see the heartbeat and know everything is ok with the baby. explaining why there is no more little brother if something goes wrong wont be fun.

    you could play a guessing game with him. or buy him and his other sibling big brother shirts.

    Buy two shirts, One saying "Best Big Brother in the World" and one that is baby sized that says anything baby related.

    Wrap both and then give him the presents. Let him unwrap the babies shirt first. When he notices it is to small explain to him what is happening and then give him his new shirt.

    Its what I did with my kids and they LOVED it

    I told mine when I was 5 weeks. I was to excited to keep it a secret!

The selection i am going with is .............40 8. basically for the heck of it. WQ: My least admired champ that I ca bear in mind grow to be JBL. Its no longer that he grow to be a bad champ, yet I in basic terms hated him clearly. His character grow to be including @ss. So he grow to be a stable champ in my view, yet in all threat the champ that I hated. the cabinet, the actual fact he constantly retained by using cheating. the actual fact he took the call off my admired wrestler, Eddie Guerrero. lots of stuff like that. So I basically hated him because of the fact he needed the followers to hate him, so he did a severe high quality interest. yet once you mean contemporary champ, the Miz. He hasn't defended the call for a whilst and that i hate that. he's killing the U.S. call's status. EDIT: @Biohazard and Dubian MoJo. Cool. My birthday is on the 26 too. rather, August 26. Hahaha. Small international. @Lizacod. Hahaha. severe high quality. Spongebob. i'm no longer gonna lie.i'm 19 and that i like Spongebob.

    tell him soon because you are obviously very excited and your son should be part of this excitement.

    he will obviously love it!

    do you need to decorate a room or something? siblings need to share rooms? someone i know, said to hers 'you and your sister will have to share a room now, can you guess why?' etc etc

    congrats!
