My DD is 14 months, she’s quite a strong willed and lively toddler, she’s not the most cuddly baby but I’m not a massively cuddly person myself so I get it.
She currently not well but she literally doesn’t want me for comfort. Only her dad. Even when she is well she doesn’t want me if she’s tired / wakes up in the night / when she’s upset. She literally chooses to have a cuddle to go to sleep from my sister rather than me. I don’t know what I’ve done / am doing wrong.
I found it lovely at first but now - after last night her being awake from being unwell and being held by me was making her scream - it is making me so upset.
I am worried we won’t have a special bond / she doesn’t love me and won’t love me, and won’t want cuddles from me ever. I maybe sound dramatic but I am also exhausted.
