separation anxiety?

thanks ladies. I don't mind holding him but that doesn't leave time to do anything else. I sometimes have to get out of the bath about 3 times just to calm him down. I try to be quick but he senses when i'm not in the room.

Babies at this age need lots of love mommy and so you can't spoil them. Until age 9 months or so they think they are actually connected to you still hence the separation anxiety at 9 months.

This is exhausting for mommy but it will improve.

He may also feel your anxiety caused by his and when hubby gets home you probably calm down too which he feels. I don't think he is missing daddy at this age.

Vash my LG was the same. After a few weeks she settled down and would sleep for longer periods on our bed. It was hard getting anything done when she wanted to be held all the time. Maybe you can try a sling?

My baby is 2 weeks old and he hates to be put down. During the day i'm alone with him and he will fall asleep on me but when i put him down he will start crying within 10 mins. When i pick him up he fall asleep again. I've noticed that he only does this during the day and when dh gets home he will calm down. Could it be that he's missing his daddy?
