I feel like the non mobile baby is becoming increasingly jealous of the freedom to roam that the mobile baby now has. They are 7 and 8 months old. Anyone experienced this before and if so, is there anything I can do to help the non mobile baby not be jealous?
Yes but I have no advice lol. I have a 7 month old and a 9 month old. They both get fussy and will cry if one is being held and fed. The 9 month old is just now able to sit without flopping over. The 7 month old is army crawling. They compete all day long with crying if the other is doing something they are not.
