I have no children but I babysit an 8 month old just about every weekend. I started keeping her when she was 4 months. She usually spends 2 days with us. My boys had NEVER been around babies before. They started out pretty nervous. The were very curious and did LOTS of smelling. When she cried Otis would run back to the bedroom. But now, if she's laying on the floor playing, they walk by her, lick her head once, and keep going. She sleeps in the bed with me and they were OK with that also. Good luck, and congrats on the new baby!!!
