Introducing and celebrating new foods

love this - such great advice. We had a small gift from baby brother to big sister waiting at the hospital, which also helped ; ) My kids are older now, but definitely encouraging the role of "helper" really worked for us. He was always just as much her "baby" as ours! 

Our peds gave us similar advice, which I think made a huge difference. We refrained from referring to 3 yo big brother as a "big" brother, because it's an age where sometimes they don't feel big at all. Also making a habit of regularly saying, "Baby, you have to wait. I'm taking care of [older sibling] now." Of course newborn baby has no idea and doesn't care, but it seemed to go a long way for our elder.
