Would you know how to knob it? What would you do?
My 3 month old have been slowly getting worse next to separation anxiety and stranger fear. I thought I had another 3 months till it started but it started early.
His grandma come to visit and the last time she came he be a little touchy but then this time he cried harder and longer than I have EVER see him cry.
He is such a good baby and he can actually budge a whole 24 hours without crying but he was screaming and in actual fact had tears. He almost never ever has tears.
She wants to hold him and does not want me to bear him because she only sees him 1-2 times a week but it KILLS me to see him cry like that.
What bothered me the most be she thought if he could see me he might be happier so she followed me around with him while I cleaned or did my thing but it made it worse for both of us beacuse he would look at me with these pleading eyes and cry and it kill me to not do something about it. He looks at me as though he is begging for help and I perceive like he will get angry at me that I am letting him suffer and ignoring his cries.
He get so upset that night that he would not calm down even after I took him from her and he would not take his bedtime bottle.
I hold never seen him get that bad up to that time and I felt really guilty.
I am thinking about asking her to only come once a week and unfolding her I need to take him if he gets upset.
What would you do?
I went through the same item with my daughter. She did not like my MIL. I took her whenever she got upset. I wasn't going to fashion her miserable just to make my MIL happy.
maybe instead of letting her hold him straight away you could lay him down on the ground with a few toys and hold you and your mum/MIL play with him too.
Three months is pretty early for separation anxiety. When grandma isn't around, does he cry when you put him down even when he can see you? Does he cry when you leave the room?
There must be something roughly speaking grandma that bothers him. Perhaps the smell of her soap or perfume isn't what he's used to. Does she wear a hearing aid? I have a friend who does, and whenever his head get close to a hard surface, such as a car window, I can hear a sharp squeal, like the feedback from a malfunctioning microphone. Perhaps something like that is bothering the child.
At his age, I don't think it is an emotional thing, it's probably something physical. You and grandma could do some organized experimenting to numeral this out. Let's hope it's something easily fixed.
There is no mode I would let my baby cry in grandma's arms. I would definately purloin him from her if he starts crying. I think your mom/mil is going about this the wrong way. She should come over, but she requirements to let your son get used to her first before holding him the full time. Babies need an adjustment period. She can talk to him/play near him while you are holding him. Let him get to know her first, then gradually tolerate her hold him more and more.

Answers: When a little one cries and you respond--a bond of trust is developed. By not responding, you're breaking his trust. I always take my son when he starts crying. It's not about his grandma's morale, his are WAY more important than hers.
Damian also started to do this at around your son's age. What I found has work for Damian is letting people bargain to him before they hold him. This weekend we were at his sister a lady looked-for to hold him so she started to chat with him first. Damian was laughing so she slowly took him from my hands. When I saw that he be about to cry I then started to talk to him while the female was still holding him. A few min later he cry so I held him right away, we repeat this process for about 15 min. After this Damian be so comfortable with her that she took him the whole time while I ate. Then again Damian is 7 months now so this might or might not work near your son. Also I think it would be a mistake if you told her to come less. The less little one see her the less he will recognize her and the more he will cry. I do think you should lift him if he gets upset but with her insight. She can talk to him and play games while he is contained by your harms.
