When a new sibling is born, it is always hard on the older ones. Though exciting, at first, suddenly having their lives change is hard. From being the center of their parents attention and recipient of their love, they are suddenly relegated to second place. The new baby takes up a lot of the parent’s time. The mother needs to catch up with her sleep, feed the baby, clean him, and put him to sleep. The older siblings may sometimes get resentful of having to adjust to the new baby’s schedule and also having to share their parents with this ‘intruder.’
