And I am feeling quite anxious and I am not sure why! She is a lovely girl when she is with us but a typical teenager with attitude at her mums house, always in trouble at school and hangs around with the wrong people.
This is mainly why she is moving in with us as we live in a different district with much much better schooling and we will offer her structure and stability here which she doesn't get at home but she was due to move in with us in a few weeks time but things came to a head last night which meant my dp had no choice but to bring her here.
We have a ds2.5 already and due a c section in a week and I was hoping to get some recovery time before she came but due to circumstances this isn't going to happen, my mum is coming to stay for a week and I am worried about space as we don't really have the room for everyone it I know I will need my mums help.
We are trying to sort a new school for dsd and will sort child benefit, is there anything else we need to be doing?
Does anyone have any advice on how to get a good routine going with so many people??
Not sure what else I want to ask really just needed to write it down somewhere I guess.
It obviously goes without saying I am happy for her to be here and I know she will do much better but I am scared
Thanks
