my older daughter she’s 3 years old is giving me hard time with my newborn baby ,she hits on baby face or hand ,and starts to scream on her everytime ,I try to keep my baby away but still she comes on her and begin yelling or hitting at her , I’ve tried everything, time out, by speaking but she doesnt listen and throws things away and just scream. what do u think what should I do, before delivery she was very calm,she never screamed and always listened to me .
Answer:
seems like she is being left out of the loop. I know it is hard to find time to give to your 3 year old with the new baby around but if you want this to stop you have to.
invite your 3 year old to help feed the baby(if you are not breast feeding) if you’re think about pumping and help your 3 year old feed the baby.
hold and rockl the baby while reading a story to your 3 year old or if you’re creative tell her a story from the top of your head about 2 little princesses or a princess and her little brother (which ever suits the situation) This will start to help her see that maybe the baby isn't a bad thing.
Make sure to explain to her that the baby is small and her to help protect him. Remind her that she was a baby once too.
Try your bes tto remain patient and give her attetion too.
She already feels punished and abandoned becasue of the new baby. Try not to do that anymore.
Answer:
she’s jealous and you punishing her makes things worse………don't get me wrong what she is doing she needs some time out but try something different, tell her you need her to be the mommy today and have her feed the baby begin off small make sure you still have you and her time away from the baby and show her she is still important
get some paint and white shirts and have her make a shirt that states she’s large sister make it fun for her to be the big sister
god luck

First of all its the age!Believe me!!Adding a new baby just adds to it as well!I have a 4 yrs old and 7 mth.If you live in a cold place she might have cabin fever too!Mine did”I noticed”a HUGE difference one she got to play outside!It might help to if you could get a sitter for a little while and do something fun just with her!If not play a motion picture after the baby goes to sleep and make a bed on the floor and play a movie”maybe order pizza,or make popcorn”I know that worked for us.:even though it only lasted a few days”Good Luck and Congrats on you new baby!

Hey, I used to have a very rebellious toddler that just makes me have a hard time disciplining him to behave.
I referred him to a psychiatrist for help and the psychiatrist recommended me that website and is proven to help toddlers behave. It was featured in parenting magazines before!
Answer:
maybe she feels that u give more attention to the new born baybee.. try playing tiny games with the 3 year old and focus on her alone certain moments of the day.
