Separation Anxiety?
My almost 1-year old has been the most relaxed, easygoing baby his entire life. My husband has been doing the bedtime routine and putting him to sleep at night since he was just a few months old. He's a breastfed baby but does take a bottle. He has been falling asleep independently for months now.
All of a sudden earlier this week he started getting really clingy to me at about 6pm, which is fine - I'm more than happy to hold him most of the time. But then when his dad would take him up for his bath he'd LOSE IT. We've been trying to stick to our regular routines but it's escalating to the point where now I basically have to be holding him 100% of the time from 6pm-6am or he's screaming hysterically. I can't put him down even if he's asleep or he immediately wakes up again. He won't even let his dad so much as touch him at night anymore either. My husband is totally his favourite during the day, but all of a sudden at night he wants nothing to do with him.
He's totally fine during the day and as soon as I'm holding him he's totally fine and his happy self. I'm just so exhausted and it's getting worse and I don't know what to do anymore.
