Ethan threw the mother of all tantrums last night. We are very aware that it is over attention being paid to Elodie.

It's not everyday but when he has them he has them with style.

There is some advice in the Toddler Taming book about tantrums when a sibling is on the way/has arrived.

I found when I was pregnant with Elodie that if I explained things simply so Ethan could understand what was going on and involved him/reassured him he was much better behaved.

It's a huge learning curve for them knowing that they're not the centre of your universe anymore.
