I am a SM to a 5 year old little girl, she is fab and we all get along very well when she is with us (except the normal 5 year old tantrums sometimes). Her DF and I are married and have been together for 3 years, DH and DH's ex were split for a while before I met him.
Anyway, we are expecting our first DC in a couple of weeks and are very excited. I am just looking for some advice on how to make sure that DSD doesn't feel left out when the new baby comes as I want her to feel like she is just as much a part of our family even though she splits her time between her mum's and ours.
We talk to her about the baby now and she seems excited and is desperate for a sister (god help us if she gets a brother!) so all ok at the moment, but after reading other threads on here I'm
A bit worried about after the baby is born
Anyone been in this situation and have any advise?
Thanks
