I have 4yrs elder son, who feels bit envious with my second child. Although he loves playing with baby but when I sleep with my newborn, he wants me to be with him.
Please don't sleep with your newborn. It is so dangerous.
When I was nursing my first kid, many many years ago, I fell asleep while nursing him and nearly rolled over him because I was so tired. It only takes a minute for something to happen.
