Babies: 9 - 12 Months

i feel like my baby doesnt like me

last weekend my mom, ds, and i went to my grandma's house. he lit up whenever he saw either of them, but not really me. i figured it was because he doesnt see my grandma too much, but ever since we have been home (and even before this), he completely lights up whenever my husband is around. even if he leaves the room for a very short period of time and comes back, he smiles and gets all excited! wth?! the only time he is excited to see me, is in the morning when i go get him from his crib. i feel like he just sees me as a "bad guy"-im the one who does all the stuff he hates..repeatedly going in and laying him down every night when he stands up in his crib, cuts his nails, changes his diapers, tells him no etc. im the one that takes care of him most of the time, but he does see my husband all the time too (he works from home). does anybody else feel like this? im obviously glad he loves his dad, but damn! i wish he got that excited about me too!

  • He's comfortable with you and knows that you will love him no matter what... even if he doesn't smile and light up when you enter the room. He loves you more than anything! Smile

    I completely agree, my DS does the same thing.  He is just comfortable with me and knows that I will never leave him and that I love him to death!

  • DS doesn't light up when I walk into a room like he does for DH but if I leave a room without him then he certainly gets upset. But I agree with what PP says, he definitely loves you!!

     I have been feeling the exact same way!!  I even cried the other night when I was putting him to bed, because he pushed me away and wanted DH to hold him.  My DH is great and does a lot, but I definitely do more of the annoying stuff.  It makes me so sad.  I think it's just a phase (or I hope it is).

    I definitely get where you're coming from!  I just told DH I feel like I get all the crap jobs with DD and she hates me for it!  But like PPs said, I'm sure our LOs love us!  And where would we be if we didn't do all those crap jobs?!

  • I feel like my LO deosn't like me most of the time either!  He doesn't even get upset when I leave, but if daddy leaves the world must be ending!!  Every once in a while he will actually want mom, so I cherish that and wait til next time.  My husband is very busy working so I think my LO is bored with seeing me all day everyday.
