Thanks ladies, she is a little better this morning. I slept really poorly, back to the anxiety and tearfulness that I felt when I first found out, although not as bad. Hoping that it passes soon. My mum is staying with us, as she wants to spend time with my brothers baby and she does not get on well enough with sister in law to stay with them. She is not the sort of person that you want to be round when your not coping. She told my dd yesterday that she was just been silly, how invalidating? She also had a go at me this morning, in front of the children, which am not happy about. Basically she was explaining to my dd that she would have to help with the new baby and my dd said she did not want to, I told dd that she did not have to help if she did not want to, my mum just had a real go at me, saying she was only joking and I always say the opposite of what she says. If it continues I am going to ask her to go home, but she will twist that to me not coping with my niece and preventing her spending time with her!
Honestly, this process is so stressful and it just seems to be dragging on and on. I so regret this whole process, I wish I had never got pregnant and just counted my many blessings!
Lissastick and bukoram sorry your daughter and son are also struggling it is so hard, hope our babies find a way to come to terms with their sibling and it enriches their life! X
