Only Child expires soon & he knows it!!!

Family Life Finn Pregnancy #2

Over the last 2 weeks i seen Finn´s bedtime routine change and he is coming now frequently after midnight into my bed for mummy cuddles.
Although he always insists to have a bedtime story from Daddy when it comes to bad dreams its Mummy`s turn.
He use to be so easy to put to bed warm milk, bedtime story, a kiss and cuddle and counting the stars on his moon and star night light but at least 4 out of the 7 nights a week he wants to go straight to Mummy`s bed to fall asleep and i have to carry him into his own bed when i go to bed myself.

I assume he knows his time where he is the only child in the house is coming to a end and he wants to enjoy the last few month “alone” with Mummy and Daddy. He certaintly got more cuddly and randomly and more often comes up asking for cuddles kisses or tells me he loves me.

I am not too sure how i feel to continue his request to come into bed with me at night time, do i slowly get him back into his own bed for the whole night or leave him with me until the baby comes??

Did your children change there sleeping behaviour before the new arrival too?
Do you have any Tips for me?
I would love to hear some suggestions because I right now i don’t know what to do!

Thanks

AK xx

    Oh bless him, I'd just go with it AK, give him what he needs. It's a big change and if he seeks comfort then the reassurance will make him happier with the transition. x

    Its a fine line isn't it. He needs things as normal as possible but with the extra reassurance.

    It's tough when a new baby is coming, and it's hard to know what to do for the best. Keep things as normal as you can but be on hand with extra cuddles when he needs them.
