Have you tried talking to a naturopath or health food shop about some homeopathic remedies for anxiety? It might help her to cope while you're sorting things out and she's settling in.
My DS gets stomach aches often that have no reason except growth hormones and stress and I find that camomilla helps him. We just call it his placebo lol. One day he's going to find out what a placebo is.
Thanks lilima - we have had some better days where she copes much better then some rather ordinary ones. Turns out the school bell scares her in the morning??!!! Anyway we have sorted a routine for saying bye when it rings and her joining her class line. We are also off to get a white board for a weeks plan - so Monday PE/MUSIC Tuesday LIBRARY etc and so she can cross the days off as we go along.
OSHC was better on Friday and she has met some bigger girls who she was sitting with - hoping they are all there next week.
Onyx - thanks for that suggestion, I will check it out. She never sleeps well and I am sure this is not helping either.
So all in all - much better and I guess with signs we are all getting used to the new routine!
Ok so last week of Term 1 here and I thought I'd update with some nice news for a change!!!!! We have had ups and downs but excitingly DD1 has settled really well so far, she has made lots of friends and we have spent a fair chunk of our home time consolidating these relationships. She still gets wobbly on OSHC but she is having a great time and has networked with a whole heaps of other kids at the school which is lovely to see. Thanks all for holding my hand and offering some really great suggestions to help!
