Hi all

My son and I have a great relationship - he spends more time with me than anyone and my husband works a lot. For this reason hes always liked being by my side but recently (past week or so) he's been majorly clingy. I mean - follows me and to another room crying if I leave, wants to be picked up constantly, climbs on my lap when I'm having a wee! He's 2 (27 months) and started nursery in feb a couple of sessions a week. I would say it was that but he was crying going into sessions at first but now doesnt... so surely he's getting used to nursery and enjoying that more?

He's fighting sleep in his own bed so co sleeping with my husband and I.

He also pushes my husband/his dad away and displays actions like he doesn't like him! Only me!

Any suggestions on how to deal with this please? And also any reassurance that this will pass??

Thank you!
