12mo Hysterical

[thisisreallyfunny]

So my DD is massively attached to me. Doesn't really go to others. When playing in the same room as I am in she will crawl over and want to be with me all the time. I put her to bed (I bf her) and I'm slowly starting to cut that down. She doesn't sleep v well and usually wakes maybe 3 or 4 times a night. I put her down at 630 and she'll wake around 10 (first of many wake ups). When my OH goes in to try and get her back to sleep she screams and cries at the top of her voice until I go in and feed her / comfort her.

The problem is, this weekend I have to go away for work and have to leave her behind. My oh says all will be fine and I am sure it will, but I'm just worried that when she wakes at night she will be hysterical and won't calm down. How can I curb this..?? Can I or is it something she will naturally grow out of in her own time? I'm really worried about the weekend.

Oh hun its natural to worry about her especially as you're going to be away from her. Would she be ok if you explain to her mummy is going away but will be back XX and you're going to do (Something exciting with daddy)?just remember you're leaving her with her daddy and not a stranger(this used to help me when I had to leave for work) eventually she will grow out if this my DD did after a year too heartbreaking I know and all you feel is guilt when you leave it WILL get easier xx

She's only just turned a year and doesn't understand.

I will only be away for one night, and I've seen what she's like when I'm downstairs and My oh is upstairs with her so I'm panicking a bit & worrying that she's going to be hysterical all night!!

Oh dear.....bless you hope you find a solution Good Luck xx
