Baby doesn't want daddy

[lasma]

Hello everyone,

My 3 months old daughter only wants her mummy and screams when daddy takes her.
I hope it's just a phase because he loves her so much and it breaks my heart, also, I need a break from time to time!

Anyone has had the same issue?

Yup, it's an awful stage. Dd did it same at around the same time.

You have 2 options, wait it out or remove yourself from the situation when he has her, leave dad to get on it with it. Once she realises you aren't there she will learn to settle for him.

Neither is a great option, but she needs to learn he is just as capable of meeting her needs

Also be prepared that'll it'll change to your baby only wanting dad and not you.

It's nothing personal but they'll go through a phase like this every few months!

Parenthood is a long term process, the relationship you both have with your child will change and grow in the coming months and years. I can imagine how difficult it must be for him but his time will come, just hang in there.

My son used to be exactly like that as a baby, as a preschooler he's now firmly in the "daddy" phase.

My baby is now 6months and she loves her dad at the moment - however at night she will have nothing to do with him! If he tries
To do bedtime or settle her at night she screams nearly making herself sick with being so upset until i
come!

I wouldn’t be too worried about this right now - things will change x
