Maheen REFUSES to be fed by her dad for the last feed!!! she screams and calls out for me, till I can't handle it anymore and jump in!!!

she then throws herself into my arms, and opens her mouth wide open for me to feed her!
she is ok during the day with my SIL, when I am at work, but as soon as I am around, she just does not want to be fed by anyone else!!

I know that babies do get clingy by her age, but this is different!
It's like she does not accept her dad, whereas he is the one who used to giver her her last feed, when I was with her during the day, he would only come back home in the evening, so it was "their" time!

I feel awful for my husband, because it really looks like she rejects him completely, and I don't encourage it! I try to keep out of the bedroom, but in the end, i give in and go! I can't listen to her screaming like this! which is not good, because like this, I feel she gets what she wants and it's not gonna get better!!!

has anyone experienced a similar situation? what do you think I could do to try and improve this!
i feel awful!!!!

Aaron went about a month where he wouldn't go to his daddy. He wanted me all the time for feeds cuddles and naps. He would let him change his nappy and play but everything else he just screamed. Even now when he hurts himself he wants me and won't stop crying until I pick him up. They just go through a stage hun, just involve your hubby as much as possible it will pass. :hug:
 
Hi

Isaac is all for me one minute then all for his dad and he even cries now sometimes when he comes home from his nanny and grandads. He seems to have his favourites and it can be for a day or as long as a week he'll just want one person.
