Hi Mums,
My two year old little girl rejects my hubby alot of the time...in the mornings, before he goes to work, she has a really small cuddle with him and then pushes him away saying "leave me alone!". When he comes home from work she runs to him for a cuddle and makes a big fuss of him and then, again, screams "no, leave me alone!". Even if he speaks to her sometimes like "are you enjoying your yoghurt?" she moans and grumbles and pushes the yoghurt away.
I work also and she is not like it with me, so it can't be the fact that he leaves or work or anything...we just do not know what to do - he is really hurt by it. He takes her swimming and buys her little treats every so often, which she loves, but then she rejects him again.
The only thing I can think of is the fact that I do everything for her - put her to bed, make her dinner, get her dressed, bath her etc....she only does the fun things with him (this is my fault because I have been over-protective with her).
I have another baby due in 8 weeks and want to sort i out before the new baby arrrives..
Anyone else in the same position? Or anyone with any advice? Is it a common problem?
