So Dsd is 6 soon and has fallen behind at school with her reading and writing, she had quite abit of time off in October time because she had grommets fitted. She was always slightly behind because she couldn't hear properly and had recurrent nasty ear infections but she seems to be falling further and further behind, my concern is that it's because we are having alot of changes, in two years she has gained me as a step mum, my two year old son as a step brother and me and her father are about to have our first baby in seven weeks, I can't help but feel like maybe it's been a bit much for her maybe and that's why she is struggling. I have ordered her some of the WH Smith's gold stars learning books to do at our house on a weekend and going to send them home with her so her mum can do some during the week with her too but is it possible that all these changes are whats causing her to fall behind and if so do we talk to her about how she is feeling? She seems really excited about having a new baby brother or sister but I'm just concerned for her :(
