My seperation anxiety... anyone else got it?

Is anyone else having massive separation anxiety from LO?  Whenever Maya isn't with me, even if she's just sleeping, I feel so lonely and depressed. I've become super super attached to her the past few weeks, more so then before, and it isn't bad but at the same time how I feel when I'm not around her is... anyone else dealing with this or have dealt with it?

    I have it bad too! I'm at home for the summer with LO. Since the end of May I haven't been away from him one time!!! I went from working every day to spending 24/7 with him. I'm EBF and don't want to pump so I'm the only one who can feed him. Now I've started adding in one bottle of formula to start weaning before August and I STILL can't seem to let anyone else keep him although they could technically feed him the bottle of formula!

    I feel like no one will watch him like I will, they won't know what he wants/likes, and I would be the best person to watch him! :( I know it's not healthy!

    I don't have it so bad as to be bothered by sleep times, but I'm totally freaking out about our anniversary vacation next month. The kids are coming with us, but we are having my moms meet us for a day and keep LO for a few hours, and I've never left her with anyone but DH before.

    I am a working mom so my son goes to daycare everyday... but this morning I had the most ridiculous attack of jealousy when I left the daycare because my baby was smiling and laughing at his teacher.  I actually walked back into the classroom to see if he would laugh at me...

    So, I guess my situation is different-- but I truly wish I could be with him 24/7.  I hate going to work and I still cry on most days when I drop him off.  I think it is normal to want to be with them all the time-- they grew inside of us.

    This is exactly me!  To everyone that says going to work and leaving your baby everyday "will get easier" is WRONG!

    I go through this sometimes, too.  It's weird because there are times that I truly feel like I need a break from LO but when I'm away from her (if I actually DO take the break) I am always wanting to get home and be with her.
