DD is 11 months and shrieks piteously whenever I am out of sight for a second. She is very physically capable and active, climbs everything she sees and heads for stairs like a guided missile. It is very time consuming and I worry that I don't have enough time for ds sometimes (he is very good about it really). She doesn't nap at ALL during the day unless in the car or buggy. It is a little wearing (esp as she wakes at night - different thread). I wonder, how long before she can be reasonably trusted not to hurl herself to her doom and feed herself reasonably effectively? I give her loads of finger foods as she prefers it, but most ends up on the floor. I am wondering as ds was very different. Much, much less active and had naps and I didn't have another child to look after.
