Aw Jakie, whatever you are feeling is okay. I think it would be natural to need to adjust to something like this, because there are two new little people needing your Mum's attention, and it will take a while for everyone to figure out where they fit into the picture. Likely the three year old is also feeling things are different, although they probably can't express it as well. Perhaps you and your Mum could do something special together once a week or every couple of weeks...just the two of you, like a girls night out. Anyway, the important thing is that you talk about how you feel, and don't keep things bottled up. ((HUGS))
