Overly attached baby.. no judgement
I love my daughter, & sometimes it makes me feel good when she prefers me rather than her father or my mil.. lol. But my daughter is 6 months old, ebf, (had to supplement a couple of times around 5 months old due to emergency family situations or life just happening 😐) and is extremely attached to me. I can give her to her father when he’s home from work and go shower for a long time and she sometimes cries the entire time until she sees me. She rarely ever does good for her father while I run errands alone too. She instantly stops when she’s in my arms. She’s this way towards other relatives especially. Thanksgiving was the first time she let my grandmother hold her (without crying!🥳) and me not be in the same room with her the whole time. I can keep going on and on with different situations but I assume you get the point.. it’s hard to get anything done when she wants me to hold her all of the time. She’s never stayed away from me longer than 4 hours and that’s been a total of maybe 5 times since she’s been born! She’s ebf so I’m already doing a lot of skin to skin, cradling, etc. plus she’s my baby so I love holding her when I’m not needing to do anything, im a stahm. So we are together 24/7, but when I give her to anybody else she usually whines as soon as I give her to them, or within 20 mins. Has anybody else experienced this??😕
