Babies: 9 - 12 Months

DD just broke my heart a little

Trying to get her down for a nap and she reached out to me from her crib for the first time. I didn't pick her up, but now I'm wishing I had and she's asleep.

Do you get used to it? Because I can't imagine feeling like this for every nap!

  • Aww! My DD reaches for me when she is in her exersacuer or in someone else's arms and it always makes my heart swell. :)

  • You get used to it, but it still tugs at your heartstrings a little bit.

  • Haha, you get used to it. Wink  At least I have!  Of course it never really phased me to begin with but... I guess I'm just like that, lol.

  • I think you did the right thing by not picking her up.  DD reaches for me at bedtime sometimes, and it makes me want to cry, but I just tell her I love her and leave the room.  I told DH he needs to start being the one to put her to bed because I hate that part.

  • It kills me when DD does that, every.single.time. I am a wimp though.
  • I love love love it...and the hugs.  I also couldn't control myself listening to Taylor Swift's song about her mom last night.  I just cried and cried... 

     

    These little kids and their heartstring tugs.

  • He doesnt reach for anything but his bottle at this point. But he has been only wanting daddy to hold him lately and that breaks my heart, he is realizing that his shoulders are more comfortable then mine.
  • I love the reaching!! DD doesn't do it all the time, but I love it when she does!! What kills me is when I put her down for a nap and then if I have to go back in and turn her music back on, she sees me and just grins and I want so bad to go and get her!! *sigh* Kids!!
