Well most of the time children who gain new siblings at a young age feel isolated and alone. Show him that it'll all be okay and that nothing will change.

Remember that even with a new child in the house, your love for both wouldn't change for the world. And so it should be alright.

Keep telling him that he's going to have a new brother.
If you know a friend or someone who has a boy, see how your son will act towards him and mention that you're going to have a new baby...

When you do have the baby, make sure and continue to give your son lots of attention.
Lots of parents think their child will not like the idea but you'll be surprised!!!

at five he should understand if you tell him he's going to be a big brother what that means. you may have to explain more to him about what to expect once the baby comes. I'm sure he will be a little jelous in the beginning because of the shift in attention. he may even act out for attention. but you'll get through it. lots of people have more than one child and their older kids seem to get used to it. maybe tell him that the new brother will be very small and needs big brother to help out. let him know that babies cannot do anything for themselves so he will need help to learn how to do things. who better to teach than him? also, let know that new baby will need a lot of extra attention and how he got the same attention when he was a new baby.

hope this helps.
