Daisy Martin is a three-year-old girl from Cardiff, and she was expecting to have a little sister, but when her parents told her that she would get a baby brother instead, then she began crying inconsolably.
“I want a baby girl, a little sister,” she was saying while crying.point 184 | Her mom Siobhan is expected to deliver in February, and she knew that Daisy wouldn’t be very much happy with the news.point 283 |
Daisy had told her mother how she was expecting a baby sister, so when she underwent the scan and found out that the baby was a boy, she decided to break the news very gently to her daughter.point 154 | 1
She, along with her husband, thought that the news, accompanied by some sweets would make things easier to handle, but they were proven very wrong.
Her mother further said that her three-year-old daughter is very dramatic, she becomes normal a few minutes after throwing a tantrum. Her mother hopes that by the time the baby brother will be born she will be four and a bit more mature.
The reason why she wanted a sister, according to her mom, is because she is every bit of girl. She loves sparkly things and fairies; you can separate these things from her. She thinks that Daisy will get used to of the idea that she will have a brother instead of a sister.
But Daisy does not seem to be giving up the hope. She asked her mother, a few days later, whether they could go back to the doctor and ask them to turn the baby into a girl.
Siobhan thinks that if they accompany the news of birth with a couple of her favorite sweets as gifts from her brother, then that might soften the blow to some extent.
