[quote=Anonymous]Sounds like hunger and tiredness are involved sometimes. Sounds like a lot of anxiety and need for control. She may feel that her world is out of control with the new baby, and she doesn't know how to respond. Are there some ways you can add in some more opportunities for her to get control in her life? Be more consistent with schedule or routine? Also, I would say that it's okay if she gets upset in these circumstances. You are handling it the right way, and as long as she has someone there to comfort her when she gets upset and you aren't blaming her or yelling at her, it can be a moment for learning to work through her emotions and understand her parents are there for her even when upset and irrational. As long as she is able to recover from it soon after and is not doing this all the time, I think it may just be something you need to calmly and supportively parent her through.[/quote]
