So I have lurked for a long time on here but today pushed me to make an account and post. I am 11 weeks pregnant and I have an 8 year old sister. I knew from the beginning that she wouldn't be happy about this so I tried to tell her gently. When I did she tried to kick my stomach! I turned quick enough that she only reached my back but then she ran at me and start hitting me, trying to reach around to my stomach again. My mom heard the commotion and came in and pulled her off, telling her she was grounded but then my sister started to cry and my mom held her and rubbed her head! I was so upset I ran out of her house and drove partially home before pulling over and breaking down crying. I am home now, and don't know how to proceed. She is 8, so I feel like she should know better. She has never acted like this before though, I mean she can be bratty but has never been violent. Any advice on what to do now?
