I need a little advice

I'm a first time step mum (25) to a lovely little 3 year old boy. Me and my partner have recently started having him every other weekend as my partners working hours have now changed to thankfully allow this. The first few weekends ran smoothly but recently he has started asking for mummy and crying on and off all day. I obviously understand that it is completely normal for his age range and that all babies just want their mummy. I'm seeking advice on the best way to soothe him. I currently tell him that mummy will be coming to collect him Sunday afternoon and that he can look forward to seeing her soon. This works but then after 20 mins or so he will be asking where mummy is again and crying. How can I help him navigate his emotions? Any advice is welcome :)

Didn't you post this exact same thread yesterday?

What are you looking for that you didn't get from your previous thread?
