My little boy used to be so easy to handle until 2 weeks back. He just turned 6 month last week and he cant stand being alone even for a minute. Earlier i used to leave him on the carpet and he would happily roll all over, practice crawling/creeping, mouth anything and everything. Whether or not i m aroubd, he was so happy entertaining himself. But all of a sudden he is so cranky and always wants someone. Since i m the only one around most of the time, its just so difficult. He just doesnt seem interested in anything when he is alone. Its driving me nuts. What did i do?!? He was never the one who was carried around a lot because i never had so much time. Hubby is always busy with office and i have no other help here. I really want to help my son with this phase. He has to learn to keep himself busy at least for a little while. I tried leaving him but he just cries louder n louder. I thought if i leave him, he may figure out something but no.could be separation anxiety but its not only me he wants, anyone being around is ok for him. Why is he suddenly so insecure and how can i help him overcome this?? Any ideas??words of wisdom??? Anything??? Please Please help!!!!!
