Hi, I am desperately seeking advice on toddler clinginess relapse. My little girl has always been very attached to me and went through an EXTREME clingy phase from around 17 months to 2 years age. Then she gradually got better, would play independently and would go to almost anyone. She had some hiccupps here and there (preschool) but she was generally doing fine and thriving as a kid. Then since past one month, things have gone downhill like crazy! My daughter wants only me, doesn't even let me go to the washroom, cries if I leave the room, does not let her daddy bathe or feed her, does not go to any familiar faces (except me my hubby and her grandparents), has been resisting preschool like anything- everyday is a cryig fest and does not play on her own at all. It has become impossible to do anything in the house. There have been no major changes in our lives as such. Also I get live feed of her school and she seems to be doing fine there too-just a little withdrawn for first 10 minutes after the drop off. Everybody tells me it is just a phase but she did go through one such phase already!!!! WHy again? and why me? I see ALL kids her age have outgrown this phase and are little independent toddlers who obviously want to be close to mama but do not act like a clingy baby. WHy my girl? and for how long?!! It is impossible for me to not get stressed.
