who for everyone else will laugh/gigle/paly with incl his daddy, but for me he crys screams pulls away and won't play with me (he does however love cuddles).

so is it a phase/just him/do I need to get paranoid? he's 5.5 months now.

i went through periods like this with ds around the same age. all is fine now, and i think it is the reverse side of clinginess if that makes sense?

ahy, I'd rather he play me up than other ppl, but just sometime's it would be nice for a giggle/a laugh! lol.

(still glad he's finished with his clingy stage for teh minute. )

i know what you mean. i used to get a bit peeved that i was doing all the dull stuff and everyone else got the fun, but i don't think it was really true even at the time, and it certainly isn't now.

interesting that it was after a period of clinginess too - am sure there is a deep psychological truth here somewhere

perhaps it's that babies are funny little people very prone to phases.
