Thanks Mel.
She has jsut been so grumpy/tanty at time lately and i wonder if it is because she knows there is something going on. (ie being due in a few weeks)....
And yes hard because she isnt talking. only mama and dada really.
She most likely does know there's going to be a big change. I'm sure J knew. But it's also around the age that the terrible twos started with T, so it could be that too. Or a combination of both. Unfortunately there's not much you can do about it, terrible twos will happen, but if you are able to handle it patiently and use it to help her learn it will stand her in good stead. But don't be too hard on yourself if you lose atience, we are all human and when pg and when you have a nb and toddler, it is really, really tough.
Hey PP- I have had the same problem with dd recently. We were at an indoor play centre and a boy around the same age smacked her around the face and grabbed her mouth and made her bleed. She has a yeast allergy which effects her skin around her mouth so its very sensitive there. So after this incident, any time another child even goes to touch her on the face, she falls to pieces, even if they dont hurt her. She is so frightened. I also think its a phase that shes going through too and also that I am due in 8 weeks maybe has something to do with it.
Hey PP - let me know when you want to organise a play date. Aricyn is pretty gentle with other kids - I haven't seen him knock anyone over (although he has been knocked over a few times himself!!!)
He has a habit of cringing when kids come near him - so might be good to get them together cos neither of them are pusher-over-ers...

I hope that it's just a short phase for you.
