Hi all,
I am looking for a bit of advice. I have a daughter with high functioning autism aged 14 and am expecting a baby in 5 weeks with my current partner (not my daughters biological father). Her world has been turned upside down in the last year as we have moved in with my partner and his part time son and now, obviosuly, a baby is on the way.
I am worried that after so many years of us being together as a twosome (12 years) she is feeling pushed out with all these changes. I want to get her a little gift on the birth of the baby just from me to show our bond and that she will always be my girl BUT (isn't there always a but) what to get her? I have gone through the logical things - hobbies etc and don't want to get her something about being a big sister as I think that detracts from my purpose. Does anyone else have some good ideas? Has anyone gone through a similar experience? Any advice / suggestion / ideas would be gratefully received.
xx
