I genuinely don't know what to do & am in a real state about this 😰
DD2 is 3 early Jan, we had lots & tantrums when some of her little friends started pre-school last term, so I potty trained her quickly & put her into pre-school. The first few weeks were fine, but now (she's going 3 mornings a week) she screams & cries every time I leave her. I've tried staying, which makes her worse, at the moment I just help her through the door & go. She is very clingy with me at the moment anyway (doesn't want DH etc) & because I don't have local family support & don't work, she's never apart from me other than pre-school. School have been so great & said within minutes, sometimes within seconds of me going, she dusts herself off, gets over it & has a great day & she's always happy at pick up.
My eldest was never like this & I'm finding it horrendous. I have depression (I'm taking melds & they do help) & I've lost a lot of weight since this started, I feel like it's my fault she's not settled & like I'm letting her down every time I leave her crying & it's just worrying me sick. DH thinks we need to push through, keep taking her & let her get used to being apart from me. I feel like I need to pull her out, wait till she's a bit older & try again. I desperately need the break from her that pre-school gives me, & I know she enjoys it when she's there, but I don't know what to do for the best. AIBU to pull her out & try again when she's 3 or 3.5 or should I push through this as DH says?
