.....after watching 'Santa Claus' the movie (background, parents divorced mum has new husband)

'i'm not sad that you and daddy live in different houses, but i don't want either of you to get a new husband'

to which i laughed then cried. does anyone have any views on how well she's dealing with the seperation?

i know shes reverted slightly and many nights i end up with her in my bed and shes gone back to night wetting (did go back to day wetting but only for a few days)

im just slightly worried on how she's dealing with it and how she would deal with it if daddy got a gf or if i got a bf (not that i get a chance!!)

shes 3.2 yo btw!

I have no experience of this but your DD sounds like a star.

I believe reverting to wetting is fairly normal with any kind of change in routine and at 3 I wouldn't think it's anything to worry about, my ds2 who is also 3 often night wets, and I know of a couple of boys between 6-8 who also do from time to time.

As for you and your ex moving on, I think if you all take it slowly and take time to get used to each other and don't expect hollywood miracles, it should be fine. I don't think you can say how it will go until it happens.

Good luck.
