Hi I'm losing it with my 21 month old, she used to be a little angel but since having a new baby brother 7 weeks ago she changed over night. She throws things, hits, says no to everything, screams throughout the day especially when the NB cries. NB is very colicky and demanding so feeling over whelmed. We have recently moved to a new city. Have no family or friends around. Today I feel like my temper is getting the better of me, I feel so guilty. My toddler was doing the usual thing of refusing to wash her hands and screaming. So I pushed her away and told her to "just Go". I feel so guilty now, we give her so much attention, I try to dedicate some time every day to play with her one to one. Give her consistent praise, take her out to play groups and try to follow the same routine but its not working. I'm scared that I will just flip and slap her even though I know for sure that it will make things worse.
