Hi ladies, ive just read back on what we chatted about before when we talked about clingy babies, but Taras got it big time. Worse than Naimh by a long shot!! i didnt know there were levels of clingyness, but ive certainly found out there is.
3days ago, i left Tara with my mil and fil (shes stayed plenty of times with them) and she cried most of the time i was out. Then, when me n ant were at the funeral yesterday, she was left with a friend for 3 hours, and she cried pretty much the whole time (apart from when she cried herself to sleep), i felt so bad. Then, today, i took Niamh to tumbletots, and i was only gone an hour, and tara was with the inlaws again, and again, SCREAMED the whole time except for a few mins before i came in where she had once again, tired herself out and fallen asleep. I know it wont last orever, and i cant put everything on hold because of it, but tomorrow morn im working, and shes staying with ant for the morning, so im hoping that will be ok, but we'll soon find out.
aaarrrgh, i forgot what having a clingy baby is like. I remember Niamh going through a clingy stage at 6-8months, but she was quite easily distracted, but nothing will console Tara. i feel horrible.
anyone else going through the same thing??

ps, sorry bout the essay, needed to get it off my chest
