I'm my whole nine months of parenting I have not had a bad like today normally my little guy is happy and will play by…

Thanks so much ladies @nomaci @dreamermom @6.5.16

It's probably separation anxiety. Not much you can do about that except reassure him you'll be back soon, that you're not leaving him, etc.

@dreamermom what wasn't normal was even when I was sitting on the floor playing with him he still wasn't happy he wanted to be on my left hip and me moving

@jlspoores, awe so the poor guy is probably just really missing his mommy snuggles!

It could be @dreamermom the only other time he was like this he was about 6 months old and I was working so he hardly got any mommy time and the last couple days I haven't held him as much because his daddy and I have been sick

@jlspoores, maybe it is separation anxiety... I've not really dealt with that one...

Thanks @6.5.16 I hope he isn't getting sick or something

@dreamermom I tried everything to get him to calm down, tylenol, ice for is teeth rubbing his gums, rubbing his belly,feeding him thinking he might be hungry, none of it worked the only thing that worked was holding him it was almost as if he was scared I was going to run away

I hope it's just a stage and he isn't getting sick he sounded congested yesterday but sounds fine today @nomaci

That's how my daughter is... she's so chill normally, when she gets like that, then I know something is wrong, either she was teething... or she was having tummy troubles, the next day her diapers would indicate the problem... but usually it was teething! Trust your gut... if it's unusual behavior there is probably a reason for it!

He may have just figured out object permanence? Some days my boy does that, no rhyme or reason, but I think it'd that he's finally realized I still exist when I'm not holding him or next to him, and misses me, and knows what it mean when he's put down.
