Is anyone else having 'ishoos' with kids due to start school in September?
DD will be a few days from her 5th birthday when she starts, and has a great time at nursery but since Easter (which was around the time we found out all the details about school) she has been very trying (defiant, telling fibs, lashing out at me and DH, sleep a bit dubious and now bedwetting when she has been completely dry for 2 years).
I can only assume it's anxiety about starting school. There are only 3 other kids from her nursery going to the same school, none of which she is especially friendly with.
The school runs a v. good induction course which we will be attending for the next 3 Friday afternoons so she will have the opportunity to meet other kids but am worried ( and frankly a bit fed up of dealing with the wobblies, although last week has been a bit better behaviour waise, if worse in the bedwetting dept).
Would be interested to hear if anyone else is having similar probs or has any advice, although will have to check back in later as a pile of ironing is calling me!
