9 month separation anxiety

3 replies

9 month old with separation anxiety for every nap / bedtime... fine in day though.

HELP. Used Ferber at 5 months and he self settles. Now he screams whenever I leave the room and Ferber method with check ins don't work.

Any advice?

Sometimes if I sit in there he won't sleep as thinks I'm playing... I've gone back to work so miss some bedtimes now... think it's tied in with that.

Maybe it's a phase? I would just offer extra reassurance, and hopefully, it passes. Not much help.
