I'm going crazy. If the baby can see me he's crying for me. If we're in the same room he's crawling all over me or has to always be in my lap. I put him on the floor or in the high chair he might be ok for 5 minutes.
Right now I'm hiding in the kitchen and hes fine for a min then crying.. Now he's scratching to get out of the room. I need help. My 4yr old was not like this unless we were in a new place.
Eta He is teething but this seems excessive. I go back to work in three days and if he's like this with my mom it won't be good. She will not do this with him.
Suggestions? Words of encouragement?

I wish I had any advice or could say it gets better. In my experience it still hasn't 😭 my oldest was never like that but my 2 1/2 year old I can't be out of his sight even now. He sits by the shower door while I take a shower, tries to sit on my lap when I'm using the bathroom, if I'm cooking wants to be on the counter. Its driving me crazy, I totally understand your feelings
Lol I've been havingvto put him in the kitxhen sink while cooking. 21/2??? Yikes!
@mhbb29 I carry her around everywhere as well, when I'm home. Even while I'm cleaning ! It's so frustrating at times but at the same time, I know I'll miss it when the day comes that this stops. They only stay little for a little while.
She is okay in their care though. Doesnt cry. Until I either leave, or shoe back up and dont get her right away. It's extremely frustrating and overwhelming but hang in there mama, it wont last forever.
@mhbb29 I'm sure he wont cry all day in your mothers care. Maybe at first but then he will stop. And he will wait for you to get back to him. He will be fine, no worries mama you can help him with this seperation anxiety by playing many different games with him. We can coach them out of this stage by doing so.
@angikay Thanks girl.. You are right.
Scarlette is the exact same way !! Has been for awhile now. My family babysits her also, she is good for them, she cries of course when she sees me leave when I drop her off there, but the minute I show up... shes reaching for me and God forbid i dont grab her as soon as i walk in, its world war 3. Also, even when I'm in her sight, she cries for me the entire time until i pick her up.
I watch kids for a living and I didnt know that this 1 year old I watch was a stage 5 clinger at all untill I saw her with her mom. When shes here shes completely independent and happy. When her moms around she cannot be put down at all ! My son is the same way too. When it comes to me he has to be in my arms always. When my husband watches him hes fine to go in other rooms and play ! I think it's just a stage all little ones go through at some point ! Your little one will be okay !! And if he does wine and cry to be held the first couple days, he will eventually get used to the days away from you and learn some independence too !! It's always good for kids to branch out and be in new environments, and grow into their own little people !
