Super clingy to me. If he sees me, he wants me. Doesn't matter who's holding him at the moment, he wants mommy. And if I put him down so I can take care of stuff - cue alligator tears. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/clingy-phases#post-1677459 Wed, 04 Jun 2014 09:23:33 +0000 MamaMoose 1677459@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjyw: my guess is it's because you went in vacation. M did the same thing to me for a week or so after we got back from Vegas. But she's chilled out now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/clingy-phases#post-1677443 Wed, 04 Jun 2014 09:20:50 +0000 Adira 1677443@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Xander is definitely in this phase. I don't usually do drop-offs, but have a couple times lately and he definitely has gotten really upset when I'm leaving. And then yesterday I had a dentist appointment, so I was still at home when Hubs was going to bring him to daycare and he just clung to me like his life depended on it! I felt so bad! :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/clingy-phases#post-1677427 Wed, 04 Jun 2014 09:17:02 +0000 Smurfette 1677427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This week has been hard but I think that is due to the new school. They say that once I am gone she cries for less then a minute. But walking away is so hard. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/clingy-phases#post-1677408 Wed, 04 Jun 2014 09:12:27 +0000 mrsjyw 1677408@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DS has never been a super mama's boy, extra cuddly, etc. But the last few mornings he's cried and clung onto me for dear life when I try to leave for work! :( He LOVES my mom and is fine once I'm gone, but it breaks my heart leaving for the office to see him like that even for a few minutes!! &lt;/3</p> <p>I'm sure it's a phase and will pass quickly, but I think it's hit me harder because he's never been super attached to me over DH or my mom!</p> <p>Does your LO go through phases where morning drop-offs are harder sometimes? </p>
