Just that really...he drives me bonkers in the house, follows me round clawing at my legs and whining unless i am sat on the floor playing cars/tractors/pushing a ball back and forth etc etc. We have got him loads of toys, and tried all sorts of non-toy ideas (banging pots and pans, shakers made of old bottles etc etc) but it's all the same: he is happy looking at it for 2-3 mins max and then leaves it and the whining starts again unless I am down there banging them with him!
He doesn't want cuddles or to be carried around as I work...as soon as I pick him up he pushes me in the throat as a sign he wants to get down. He just wants me to play with him.
It drives me mad, the house is a state, it's very difficult to get even the basics of cleaning done, and the time we spend in the house draaaaaags out. I find myself waiting for his nap. (We go out twice every day for this very reason, but its the 3 hours between 6am and 9am when he has his first nap which are currently killing me!).
I have tried to do everything else with him in a baby-led way (ie weaning, following his cues for sleep) not that I have had much of a choice as he is a very willful spirited little boy! so should I just persevere with this and hope that by doing lots o playing with him now, he will somehow learn to be more self sufficient as he grows older??
I am starting to worry that I am somehow spoiling him and that he will never learn to play by himself and I am getting it all wrong :(
