Hi all I had a baby seven weeks ago. DS (3) has been very loving towards the baby. He has been v good generally though this week started to be more stroppy during the day. Main issue is that some bedtimes have been awful. Just keeps calling for us and going through 100 delay tactics. Really making an effort to spend 1:1 time with him as think it could stem from jealousy but don't know what else to do. We are trying to be consistent with our routines. Feel so emotionally spent and got a night with the baby ahead of me 😬 any advice v welcome

No advice just empathy lots of us have been there. They do grow out of it (mine are now 7 and 10)

It could possibly be nothing to do with the baby 3 year olds just are unpredictable. You have to just ride it out

@NoKnit thank you yes will aim to ride it out and hopefully won't be too long till he settles again. Assumed was to do with baby as most behaviour seems to be clinginess towards me but true it is an unpredictable age so who knows 😂
