My 7 month old dd has been going to a (very good) nursery for 1 day a week since the beginning of Sept. She's generally been fine there - eats and drinks ok, plays ok, although does cry when I drop her in the morning (although the staff tell me she stops pretty quickly after I've gone). But last week she had a horrible day and refused all food and drink and really just cried most of the time. She cut her first tooth that evening so we know what the problem was but this morning when I dropped her she cried so hard she couldn't breathe properly I don't know if it's just bad timing that she is teething (and has a little bit of a cold) so therefore is more clingy at the mo, or whether she's not settling as well or easily as she could do because she's only there one day a week. A couple of friends of mine with toddlers in nursery say that their observations suggest babies settle quicker if they go more regularly than once a week. What do you think? I don't really want to put her in more than once a week because she goes to grandparents (both sets) for one day each and then the other two days are my days with her - and none of us want to give up our time with her! But if it's going to make her more settled and happy at nursery I'd do it in a second...
