I need help! so guys I’m a stay at home mom and my daughter is 5 months she is so attached to me and she will no let anyone hold her but a select few people but within about 10 mins she cries for me also if other family wants to come visit and hold her she screams bloody murder so I’m asking how can I get her from being so attached and not so clingy ?

I think it is just a developmental stage, she now perceives the difference between you and is experiencing separation anxiety. Maybe when someone new wants to hold her you could sit close to them and play a game with her without holding her. Get whoever is holding her to join in and slowly extend the space between you.

My 13 month old still does that. It only gets worse. I cant go to the bathroom or walk 4 feet away from him without a complete meltdown. My family learned quickly that they either need to step up and come around more often or dont mess with him. 🤷♀️ may be harsh but you cant expect a child to warm up quickly to a complete stranger. That even includes his grandparents. I'm not forcing you into his life and I'm not going to force him to like you because you seldomly want to come around. Other then that they have to grab him and walk away pretty fast. Ends up being an out of sight out of mind thing.

Right totally agree like she will go to my mom and dad but not my husbands because she lives far away but she still needs to step up because It’s not my responsibility to make my child know you ! Thanks a lot I needed that I think I’m a little to kind at time ..
