My dd is going to be staying overnight with her daddy for the first time this weekend. He was never around much and didnt really do any of the bedtime things/ anything much than watch her for about 30 mins really. She is just3. Its a house she doesnt know, he doesnt any accomadation so has hired a familes house ( army) for the weekend.
Normally this would be difficult and worring but shes having such a hard time at the momment, shes not settled in at her new nursery, she keeps being ill, she has got super clingly to me ( something she has never been) and is always worried i am going to leave her. Plus she saw our dog get hit by a car on sunday and she hasnt stopped crying about it. ( dog is ok, by some miracle).
I know she has to go, i dont want to stop it, but shes really struggling at the momment and im worried this is just going to confuse her and make it all worse.
can someone reassure me, or offer ideas how i can make it easier for her? thanks
