Super clingy

Anyone else’s 1 year old all of a sudden chasing you everywhere and wanting to be picked up? Even getting up off the sofa she will run at my legs. Before she would happily independently play.

Yes! My son is constantly pulling at my legs etc if I move away. I now mostly sit on the floor when he’s playing so I’m his level and he tends to play independently that way x

We’ve been in this phase for a little while now.. I have a permanent ankle bracelet if I dare to move anywhere except sat by his side 🙈

Literally going through this right now with my 1 year old, I can’t leave the room without being chased, and it’s only recently it’s happened

Haha yep 🥲🫠😅

My youngest has always been like having a little koala bear😅 She's always been attached to my side. I do remember my eldest going through a phase of always wanting to be near me. That was more when we were around other people though. Separation anxiety is a normal developmental phase, it will pass.

Same mine , attached to my hip 😅.

Mine was like this for a month & now is back to indie play again and way more chill x

Yes same here wandering why ?

Yea same here, she’s one in 2 weeks and the past week she’s always at my ankles

Yeah my little boy is also! He’s gone all this time without caring what I’m doing but now he’s more aware he’s obsessed. I lowkey love it, until I have to actually carry out my motherly duties 🥲

My son was doing this also it’s been a struggle to get anything done but today he’s showing signs of getting back to the way he was before I think it’s just a phase but for an entire week pretty much since his birthday he was chasing me around the house he loves his sister and he would cry when she picked him up. It’s feeling like the phase is over because he slept all night the past two nights. He also adjusted his bedtime he goes to sleep earlier now. Idk these post pandemic babies are really different. Hopefully yall LO will adjust soon. Sending yall strength and patience 🫶🏾🫶🏾

We are dealing with this just now too 🥲 separation anxiety. Our little one is doing the exact same, even if I pick up my shoes he breaks his heart crying 😭. He’s also at night waking up crying looking for me, wimping in his sleep and at roughly the same time every night he is waking and fighting going back to sleep and all he wants to do is cuddle , If I put him down for a second he cry’s hysterical 🥲 We have been advised to keep to his routine and to try create an Attachment to a teddy bear or soft blanket just to give him a bit of comfort especially at night time. Last night he slept ten till around 2 with waking and crying. From then he was up till around 6 then slept to 9. Even taking away his afternoon nap didn’t help him sleep more at night. The mum guilt just hit me on this one as I’ve just a few weeks ago started back working 😭 He is with his daddy when I’m working as we work opposite shifts passing by each other and he’s only like this with me.
