Honestly my son is 5 months and my daughter is 6. We thought their would be alot of jealousy towards her little brother but it is actually the complete opposite of jealousy  if anything she wants to help too much. Although she does act out again in other ways to get attention like writing on things with crayon again, getting into my makeup and nail polish (which i had to throw all out) stuff she used to do when she was 3 she’s back to doing. She used to be able to be sent to play if we left her unsupervised and i was doing laundry or dishes but now she cannot be trusted. I hope this helps.

As long as the baby`s needs are met, they are fine. It is the oldest child that needs the attention to help with self esteem.  It worked like a charm for us. good luck!
