My beatiful 6 month old dd started her first full day at nursery today, after a few settling in sessions in the weeks leading up.
Although the nursery staff tell me she has been absolutely fine and happy, whenever I have gone to collect her she has been crying. Today was particularly bad, and she had obviously been sobbing her little heart out in a way she never does at home. We have the usual grumbly crying but nothing that reduces her to sobs.
The nursery keep reassuring me when I pick her up and when I phone to check on her - but its so unlike her to cry pitifully like that? Don't know what to think. Am I being totally paranoid? They have never phoned me to come and collect her. Can I be reassured that they WOULD phone if necessary?
I know its only the first day but it rips my heart out to think of her being unhappy. Is it just a process of getting used to it over time?
