My son prefers his dad over me
Hi everyone,
Feeling a bit down and wanted some words of encouragement if anyone can offer them.
My 14 month old prefers his dad over me. I'm 27 weeks with our second baby and for the past 5 months my son has been all over his dad. He wants to be around him and play with him only! I try so many times but I can't run as much as my partner can and I can't hold him for as long. The only thing I had was when he gets hurt or feels sick then he would run to me but today he bumped his head and ran to his dad instead of me...Now I am not even that to him.
I feel so heartsore and down. I try to play with him, give him lovely fresh food and yummy snacks...fun bathtime bubbles or edible jelly. I read to him or I try and kick a ball outside but it's all about his father.
Am I the only one or are there other mommies out there who have experienced this who can give me some words of encouragement? Xx
