I never done this before but me and my wife we are kinda desperate. Our youngest son is 11 months and he has really bad separation issues with me it's got to the point when my wife wants to pick him up to give him cuddle he literally climbs on me. And if he wakes up in the night there is. I want she can calm him dow. He gets hysterical as soon as I'll take him of her he is fine. We have seen health visitor but she wasn't very helpful. My wife's work is very demanding, long hours she isn't around as much as I was when our older son was a baby. Could that be partly the issue ? What should we do just keep trying and let her take over until he calms down? Should I call off when she is home? Sorry for long post but this situation is getting us down. 😞

It's hard but the best thing you can do is to just go with it. If he wants you, he needs you. Probably exhausting but if he knows you are there for him when he needs you, he will be able to improve his mind with his mum.
