Antenatal visits when there are older siblings are just magical sometimes, particularly when the older child is around the age of 2 or 3. They generally are quite fascinated by everything that is going on. It is so funny when I have just listened to the baby’s heartbeat with the Doppler and then the older sibling lies down and lifts up their top wanting me to listen to their tummy too! My niece Ebony used to pick up my Pinards stethoscope and put it against my sister’s bump to try and listen to the baby’s heartbeat before Erin was born.
