Moms with kids a few years apart (not one right after the other), I have a question. I know kids close together get jealous and whiny and act up before and just after new baby is born, but did your older kid act up and cry for no reason like a baby when you were 8-9 months pregnant? My soon to be 5 year old has been misbehaving and throwing fits and whining and literally acting like a toddler. It started about two weeks ago. Shes super excited for baby to come and tells everyone shes about to have a sister etc. So I'm unsure if it's the baby coming or just a 5 year old girl phase. She also has pretty bad ADHD so I know that can be part of it. Just curious if other people's experiences. I'm having a very hard time dealing with her at the moment without getting severely pissed off and blowing a lid.
