My 10 month old DD is usually very happy and smiley. She wakes with a big smile on her face and is usually a joy to be around. lately, however she has gotten very sensitive about being told "no" or having an item taken off her (for her own safety). She will go into awful painful sobs with the fattest tears rolling down her cheeks. I try and comfort her and she buries her head into my chest while wailing inconsolably. Anyone who is witnessing her reaction for the first time can't believe it. No amount of distraction will stop her crying - it could continue for 15 mins! We don't shout at her and are very careful to use a soft voice when saying "ah ah" or "no" so as not to frighten her but it's still the same. It's hearbreaking but I just don't know what to do. Any suggestions?
