Separation Anxiety....severe

palmtreemandy · December 2012

I recently moved from Ohio to Washington state for my husband's job. Shortly after arriving i was called to Kansas by hospice as my mother lost her fight with brain cancer.

I know the unframilar setting and changes are what is causing my 11 month old to have these behavior problems... but I am about to my breaking point with her.

I have to be holding her every waking moment, or the tantrums and crying fits are enough to where she makes herself sick or has hurt herself. The instant I pick her up she is happy again and can self soothe. It's starting to scare me,and its becoming really unfair to my 3 year old who can't get any mommy time at all.

She wont even let me sit her down to go pee... Our days are becoming a nightmare. I am getting so numb to her cries that sometimes i just let her wail and ignore her. I dont wanna be that mom.

Anyone have coping techniques for her- or for my stress level?

please and thank you

I echo babywearing. LO may really like it at first, then when comfortable, want to explore the new environment.
