Dsd 11 has taken it upon herself to pick up ds (2 weeks old) and walk about the house with him. She picks him out of his cot when I am not looking, and walks downstairs with him.
She is a lovely sweet girl, but she is also incredibly clumsy. Always tripping and dropping things. Dh and I have told her she can hold ds on the cough when we are there but she just ignores her. I know if she picked him up when i was in the bathroom or something and dropped him or tripped I would end up giving her into trouble.
I am recovering from a c section and I am exhausted. Dh goes back to work tomorrow and I am worried about dealing with dsd if she won't listen to me. I 100% get she is proud to be a big sister. I make a point of including her, she helps me
To feed him, change him etc and she loves it, she feels like she is my little helper and it makes her feel important, but I really want this walking around with him while he is
So young nipped in the bud.
