My DS is 7 months old. Until recently he’s been very happy in the company of strangers - smiling at the random lady at the bus stop, or the friends we’ve bumped into on the street or in the park.
However, in the last couple of weeks he has suddenly become a lot more wary of anyone who’s not me or DH. He’s fine if I’m just chatting to another adult, but he looks a bit afraid and like he’s about to burst into tears if anyone starts trying to interact with him.
Is this normal or unusual for a baby of his age? I’m worried that it’s a result of the pandemic and not meeting as many people as he otherwise would have.
Is there anything I can do to help him?
