Introducing Your Newborn to Pets or Siblings

Tom and Malorie Episode 6

Join Malorie and Tom as they share their experiences and advice on introducing your infant to your pets and siblings. 

As parents to a 2 1/2 year old and an 8 month old, with a mini springerdoodle and cat, they've dealt with the challenges firsthand. From prepping their dog with stroller walks and barking training before baby's arrival, to the initial sniff introduction, they cover what worked (and what didn't quite go as planned).

Tom and Malorie dive into the realities of juggling a hyper dog who loves to lick, a toddler's jealousy during breastfeeding, and the importance of maintaining patience throughout the adjustment period. They suggest tactics like involving the older sibling in baby care, creating safe spaces, and providing distractions during nursing sessions.

In addition, and for the first time, Tom and Malorie go even more raw and give updates on how they are doing in life and what parenthood is like for them in the present.
