only child adjusting to the incoming baby... HELP!
I have an amazing daughter. She's turning 5 May 19, while I'm due with a girl may 13th. She's excited overall but has been acting out in different ways ever since our 3D ultrasound. She clings onto me so much now that she attempted to push my 2year old cousin off my lap so she could cling to me. She makes comments like "I didn't want that baby, you guys did so I won't help with it" and has reverted to a toddler like state of crying non stop over little things. Every time someone mentions the baby she attempts to bring attention back to herself in anyway (crying, screaming, throwing stuff, slamming doors, etc.) she has really never acted this way and I feel so helpless right now. But then I'll be folding baby clothes and she will get excited and want to help. So it's not like she's always acting out. Anyone currently dealing with this, or have dealt with it with any advise? I want her baby sister to be exciting for her.
