Hi,

How wonderful that you are going to adopt again!

My advice would simply be to not 'FORGET' your son is there. Little guys (or girls) worry when a new "baby" comes home that their mommy and daddy won't love them as much any more. Involve him as much as you possibly can - let him hold the wipes or lotion when you change the baby. Be sure to have time everyday for just the two of you, that is so important!

Sibling rivalry is going to happen despite our best efforts to avoid it, just go with the flow and allow them to resolve it on their own if they can. If you need to step in, hear both sides of the story.

Good luck. This will all be natural to you in no time at all.
