Bathtime and separation anxiety
Anyone else’s LO suddenly decided they hate even the sight of water? We tried and bailed on bathtime two nights in a row now, but can’t get LO to go near the bath. He just climbs up me and gets really really upset. Now this morning if I put him down or even look like I’m going to put him down he gets very upset fast! The handover at nursery was heartbreaking.
Is this just all separation anxiety or could I be missing something? He ate well yesterday, slept well overnight. He’s fine in my arms or on my lap.

My little girl has screamed at Bath time since she was 5 months old, she'll happily come in the shower with me but won't bath on her own or with us. We have no idea why she started hating it
We had this! It lasted about a week and then went back to normal!

My little one just went through this. Went from loving bath time to screaming the house down the moment he saw the bath. I just stopped bathing him at night for a while and would do it as soon as he woke up from his afternoon nap and did that for a couple weeks and he just randomly went back to enjoying baths again
