Hey
Just wondering if anyone else is going through the same.
My 4 year old DS is so very very clingy with me, frequent wake ups crying for me, wanting me to stay by his bed or getting into bed with me and DH almost every night and when he does he has to snuggle up really close to me, not guna lie im loving the extra cuddles! But he wont go into any room by hinself at home, all lights have to be on, i have to go to the toilet with him.
He is fine when i go to work and leave him at preschool but hes also the same with my mum when she has him after school, very clingy and has to know where she is or what shes doing etc.
Is it a phase? Night terrors? I have asked him whats up and i dont think he quite knows tbh.
I dont remember my 10 year old being like this! Any advice appriciated ☺️
