My 21mo dd gets upset when other children come to play at ours and pushes/shoves them (has bitten once) when they touch her toys. I know this is probably quite normal behaviour but none of the other children I know are like this. Nursery say she can have 'off days' when she is like this and she herself has been bitten twice in the past month (but not bitten others)
Today a friend with a 6mo visited and dd hit him, shoved him and pulled his arm. He was just lying on the floor being smilely. Our second baby is due in a matter of weeks and am panicing that dd will be even worse with her own sibling.
Any practical advice or pointers on good books on sibling rivalry?
I dont want other Mums to avoid bringing their children to play with dd and am terrified she will seriously hurt our baby boy.
