10 month old cries only with me, is happy with everyone else

I feel like my baby has reverse separation anxiety. He cries for a long time with me and is happy as soon as someone else picks him up. I feel like a monster and like I've got something horribly wrong.

I hope someone else has experience of this... I feel like such a failure, I thought they were supposed to be clingy for mum at this stage but he wants anyone else but me and my partner keeps saying he looks "scared" when hes with me :(

I've been his main caregiver and he has been a very happy and easygoing baby until now. He has a few teeth coming in which explains his mood but not why its specific to me :( I'm also the one who spends all day stopping him doing things he wants to do (pull lamps over, eat plants, eat plastic, go near the dog, pull the tv onto himself) and is constantly doing things he doesnt like (brushing his teeth changing his nappy offering him water getting him dressed and undressed)

Help!

Forgot to mention I had a back injury 2 months ago and have hardly been able to hold him until the last couple of weeks
