My 3 year old daughter started stuttering about a month ago. At first she was just repeating some words and a week after her brother was born I noticed that she tensed her mouth and closed her eyes to get the word out. I am very worried about her. We have an appointement with a speech pathologist on saturday to get her evaluated. Has this happened to anyone of you ? How are your children doing with their new sibilings? I forgot to mention that around the time she started repeating words my father was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer she is very close to my father because we live nearby. I was so heartbroken I cried all the time. Did I traumatise her with all my crying ? I feel so guilty.
