Bonus baby having a hard time.

*incoming long post*
I met my bonus baby when she was 3 1/2. She is now 7. We’ve had a great relationship! She has always been so sweet and kind. Her mother has never wanted a relationship with me so I respect her wishes and did not press that matter. About a year after knowing my bonus baby she was confused on what to call me and her dad said she can call me whatever she wants/is comfortable with. She decided on bonus mom💞 Her mom did not like that and shut that down quickly. Respecting her mom’s wishes, I did not press that either. Her dad and I have 2 1/2 year old twins together whom she loves and has a great relationship with. I will say our home can be a bit more chaotic and our(her father and I)attentions are spread between all three children as opposed to her mother’s home she is the only child there. The past few weeks or so she has been very sad and wanting to call her mom(which is totally okay, just out of the normal). One day she even cried leaving her mom’s house because she just wanted to be with her mom. I’m not sure what caused this shift in her not wanting to be here but it tears me apart. I want her to be happy but I also want her to want to spend time with us and know that she is so loved here. I know there are changes at her mom’s house too(she is in a serious relationship now) so that may have an impact as well. I also think if may be hard for her to see her dad with another women and have kids that all live in the same house where as her parents have different houses. I was wondering if anyone elsew has been in this situation and how they were/are supportive of their bonus baby and why they did in this scenario.
