3 year old DD was ill (bad cold, temp) last week and possibly unrelated but has been superclingy with me since then - sobbing when dropped off at pre-school (because I'm not there, we talked about it), wants to be carried everywhere, etc.
She's also completely off DH atm. He adores her and is very involved - much better at playing with her than I am, more patient, did the whole of her bedtime routinue until a couple of days ago (as she now refuses to let him do it and I have to).
We do have 20 week old DS so wondering if it's a late reaction to his arrival but seems a bit late (?).
I'm trying to just meet her needs as best I can in the hopes that she'll eventually get whatever security she needs at the moment and pull away again but ack it's exhausting and I'm also feeling sad for DH (she wouldn't even kiss him goodnight tonight).
Is there anything we can do except repeat "This too shall pass" and wait for things to change?
