a good book for preparing ds of new baby on way?

[vannah]

I had a look through the local library but couldnt find anything appropriate, my little one is 23 months old...and our baby is due in december...
Any titles that you can remember? Something thats nicely worded and preferably nicely illustrated.
Thankyou

i got a couple through amazon - maybe a bit young for you as my dd is only 21 months now and baby due next week but two are 'my new baby' and (i think) 'waiting for baby' illustrated by annie kubler. no words, just pics but nice and show breast feeding (which seems to me a potential flash point for jealousy) as well as scans, decorating nursery, dad doing cooking while mum puts feet up and then visiting hosp, baby coming home, changing etc etc.
another i got is called something like 'in mothers lap' and is a story book about a little boy and his mother and how he and his toy and blanket and new sibling and a host of other things can still fit on mother's lap same as ever and there is enough love and attention to go round.
i think if you call any of these up on amazon you'll get sent to 'other titles' people bought and lists people have made which will point you in direction of other books with words and stories etc.
hth.

theres a house inside my mummy definetly the best I used it with DS to prepare for both the girls and he was 2.2yrs and 3.2yrs when each was born. I also read it to DD1 who was 12mths and she seemed to enjoy looking at the pics etc.
