I have just had a DD but already have a 5yo DD since I've got out of hospital my 5yo has spent a few nights crying, she's crying in her sleep and then when she wakes but she won't talk to me or tell me why she's crying. She's been a fantastic big sister and has been involved entirely in helping me with the baby she often says how much she loves her little sister and completely adores her. I'm currently recovering from a c section so my movement and taking part in activities is extremely limited so am not able to do as much with her as I have always done. I've explained it's not the baby it's because I've had major surgery and things will go back to normal when I'm better. Has anyone been through this with any of their children or have any advice on how I can help her.
