Hi I am kinda new to mums net but i was told it is a great place to get help with some questions

My Daughter is 21 months and today my friend brought her little boy in a few months younger to play with her and she wouldn't stop attacking him whenever he picked up her toys she went mental like kickin screamin and hitting him is this normal

she has always had her 2 cousins around her and i thought she would be fine but obv i was wrong

can anyone give me some advice on how to make her less jealous i am pregnant baby due in feb and i am scared she is going to be really bad when he comes ..

It is very normal!! She is very young and too little to understand the concept of sharing!! My dd1 was like this and when she was this age I was selling my house...she screamed when viewers went into her room to look as she thought that they were going to steal her toys!!

She is young but when your new baby arrives it will help if you can get her involved...even if it's just things like letting her stick her hands in nappy cream and applying, or getting a nappy or holding the baby....it will not last forever and having a second baby at this time may help. My dd1 was like this until she went to school. I think only children find sharing harder....now I have dd2 and there is a big age gap (7 years) so it is much easier...but don't stress about it and also little girls seem less willing to share IME - they always like to be in control!!! Or maybe that is just my dd!!
