On the day I was born, my parents gifted my brother a chalk board on behalf of his newborn sister, amid concerns he'd feel jealous that I was getting more attention than him.
Now, unless there was a Toys R Us I was unaware of in my mother's womb, I'm pretty sure I didn't have any involvement with the purchasing of that present, but it seems to have cemented a pretty good sibling bond in the years since.
And now it appears Beyoncé and Jay Z are also concerned about their first born child, Blue Ivy, feeling envious when she welcomes her twin siblings in the upcoming weeks and, as a result, they've decided to involve the five-year-old in the family's big day.
According to the Daily Star on Sunday newspaper, the 35-year-old and her husband have invited their daughter to be in the room while Queen Bee gives birth so she can be part of the 'magical family moment'.
'They're worried that their daughter might feel left out when the twins arrive, so they're trying to make sure she feels involved every step of the way,' a source told the publication.
If that's not enough, Blue Ivy will also reportedly wear a child's nurse's uniform designed by none other than French label Givenchy, which is believed to cost a whopping £780.
The news comes almost a week after the pop star posted a photo of her holding her daughter above her growing bump.
Beyoncé, if you'd like a birthday partner also dressed in head-to-toe Givenchy, just give us a bell.
