hooray!! just curious - what have you been doing differently that seems to be working?

Yay! That was a phase that really needed to end.

he's been going everyday (for half days) for just over a week now instead of Tuesday/Thursday. My DCP said that she had done this before when kids were going part-time & going through separation anxiety.

on mornings that he seems particularly nervous, I give him a stuffed animal to bring from home. Sometimes cuddling that helps him (a little).

Woot! From what I understand, it can be harder for older babies to get used to a daycare situation, but once they are in the groove, it is gravy. I'm so glad! I, on the other hand, have to pry C out of my DCP's arms at the end of the day. I try not to take it personally.

Hooray!!!

As a side bonus, I'm guessing this also means more alone time for you.

Amazing! And kudos to your daycare provider for coming up with an alternative schedule to help him through this.

Yes & I can't believe she's not even charging me more for it (although, I added more in b/c I think it's only fair).

I don't really like the half-days though. I definitely prefer having 2 full days to myself b/c once I get started on my homework, 5 hrs can blow by & not realize it. If I get interrupted, it's harder to go back to what I was doing.

So, I hope that when we go back to his p/t schedule, he's OK. (she won't have room for him MWF in March)
