I've got a 7.5 month old baby girl and over the last few weeks every time she sees me she whines and moans, which results in a huge crying fit if I don't immediately pick her up. When I've picked her up sometimes it continues and I don't seem to be able to make her happy anymore, I can barely play with her etc. This goes on all day every day and it's really starting to grind me down. I went away for a night 2 weeks ago and she was great with my partner, no moaning and just the normal happy, smiling girl she used to be with me.
She's absolutely fine when I leave the room, it's just when I reenter. Could this be separation anxiety? I do still breastfeed her so not sure if this has something to do with it as well...
I'm trying to tell myself this is a phase etc. and that it won't last forever but this is without the doubt the part I've found the hardest and feel suffocated by it currently.
