ok that may be a little harsh but it seems like that at the moment/- she is hyper one minute, then grizzly and miserable the next. Anything can spark her off- the wrong piece of toast, missing the first note of the music of her tv programme, having to wait whilst I changed ds nappy, me not 'tickling' her right, having to share a doll with dd2 ( she had 3, her sister 1). And that is just this morning!!! When anything doesn't go her way she hits, makes rude noises, head butts, screams and has a tantrum. Only when she is with me and dh, at school she is an angel! Then when she is not grizzly she is totally hyper, running jumping unable to keep still.
She has been like this for a while but she is not sleeping well at the moment which is making her uncontrollable at times.
Any suggestions, at the moment I am putting her in her room when she grizzled and she comes down when she is calm, but it doesn't seem to be working. Dh is so concerned he thinks she needs to see a psychologist.
I have just been diagnosed with pnd - ds 9 months. Am thinking she must be copying me because I have been finding it difficult to stay calm.
Sorry for long post, thanks if you got to the end
