13 month suddenly very clingy

[ginandtonic1]

Hi, Anyone have any insight? V happy 13 month old has become very clingy at night. She's normally very chilled and upbeat, it's like she's having a proper freak out at night. Anyone know if they just go through a clingy phase at this age or is she just having a "moment"?

A nursery employee told me the the most difficult age for children to be left is around 14m as they hit the peak of "separation anxiety" then.

oh interesting. Thanks.

My dd is bit older (16 months) but just had terrible few weeks at bedtime. Full on fits when you left the room. And also hysterical in the day every time I left room or went upstairs. And then overnight it got better. So I was wondering the same! I was so relieved when it all seemed to go back to normal. Hers also coincided with big teething stint.

Thanks for both of your help.
