Hi all
My daughter is 1.5 and has always been weary of other people. From about 4 months old, she cried whenever people talked to her and then progressed to crying when people talk to me. She now says ‘bye’ and waves whenever people approach us. She repeats bye a few times and if they don’t go she starts crying! I find it quite embarrassing at toddler groups and as a single parent, I would love to be able to talk to others as I am so isolated. We have attended at least one baby group a week since she was 2 weeks old and are always out and about, but it seems to be getting worse rather than better. Has anyone experienced this? How can I help her to feel comfortable around others?
Thanks for taking the time to read! Any advice is so welcome
