Hi - we've broken the news to our DD that she will be having a baby brother. She cried for ages :( :( I don't know what to do as it really upset me. I know things will change lots and she is going to be worried about that but I feel at sea about how best to support her without getting emotional myself. I really don't want her to be unhappy. I want her to trust me so she can be honest so I think I need a slow and steady plan of action to make this as positive experience as possible for her, whilst also giving her room to express her worries and concerns. I can empathise as I have them myself about how it's all going to work! Anyway to cut to the chase, I wondered if anyone had good book recommendations and other advice. I've seen quite a few books for toddlers who will be having siblings, but they seem a bit young for a 6 year old so am really looking for something for that age group. Many thanks.
