when do they start hugging ?

[fredly]

my 10mths old dd has started hugging us and i was wondering if they are real hugs of affection or if there is nothing behind it, iyswim. So cute !!

affection .. comfort ... love ... need ... yup

(we call it 'cling-ons' but then DD was born on May 4th ..as in May the 4th be with you )

my ds4 hugs and kisses!! I ask him for a kiss and he gives me one! Dont care if he means it or not means everything to me!!! Especially as he doesnt seem to do it to anyone else!! He has always snuggled up though as if cuddling!

its lovely but not all babies do it .. DS was the most uncuddly baby and toddler .. it was only when he hit 3 or so that he started to like and return kisses and cuddles

DD is totally different (14 months at the moment) ..it is so lovely isn't it?
