Comfort only from dad!

Hi everyone,
My little girl has just had her 1 year vaccines, and we took her dad along too (she's strong, he can hold her better in situations like that) anyway, she cried, but when he passed her to me to comfort her, she would thrash and scream to be back with him! I honestly felt useless. Can she not see me as comfort? They have a great relationship anyway but she's done it few times when ill, just prefers dad. I'm just worried she doesn't see me as being able to help her. Confused

Is it possible that you were (understandably) a bit stressed by the situation. They pick up on it, I’m sure. I know my little one is very sensitive to my moods, more so than my DH’s. That’s I’m sure all it was. Generally I’m sure she knows you are there to comfort her.
