Is my 6yo Jealous?

Me and my husband have just found out the we are expecting. Only at 8 weeks, so still very early. I currently have a 6yo and she knows about it, but for the past week or so she keeps complaining of stomach ache, we've got a doctors appointment but I can't help and think is it because she is jealous? As through the night she will keep coming into our room to try and get in bed with us, saying she has tummy ache, we warm her wheat bag up and take her back into her own bed. But every couple of hours she'll try again saying the same thing, however, if either one of us takes her down stairs to sleep, she sleeps straight through with no complains. I've asked her if she's jealous but she says she's not and I just don't know what to do. Anyone else experienced this problem?

Thanks

I think it could be anxiety perhaps rather than jealousy?
