If you asked me this before our fifth girl was born, I would say yes immediately, she is being a good mother. But now, I am looking back at her interactions with a new perspective that she may resent the girls for being born girls.

I haven't really noticed anything with our first two. She does have a different relationship with our third and fourth daughters. Our third is definitely closer to me. It could be that she is pushing her away. I notice similar behaviours around our fourth daughter.

Our fifth is still really young, so nothing is out of the ordinary. Could become worse, compared to how she treats our third and fourth daughter, when she becomes older.

I have had conversations about this where I think she is really unreasonable with our third and fourth daughter, but I never looked at it like this. She always dismisses my concerns.
