My 11 month old has suddenly become clingy. With his Dad though as I work. When Im around everytime Dad walks out of the room he cries and follows him and always wants to be picked up tugging at his legs.
When its me on my own he's clingy for about 30mins then fine.
With his Auntie or childminder he'll hardly let them put him down and be moany most of the time with a few good intervals!
So he's clingy with everyone and anyone really. We've played peek-a-boo from an early age and always say goodbye and before this he's never cared about us walking out of the room. He still isnt that fussed who he clings on to but especially likes his Dad as primary carer.
He also wakes so much in the night after a recent cold Ive ended up putting him in bed with us as cant cope with work and night wakings. In bed with us he wakes frequently but with little fuss as i tap his back and its almost a non event. Think the night wakings are probably related too. He also has 8 teeth, does this make him more clingy when their teething? He hasnt stopped since 6 months.
Any tips? Everyones always helpful and solved my babies early wakings with a black out blind!
