Thanks guys.
JJ is being so funny at the moment - freaking out about all sorts of little things. He's passionately terrified of koosh balls at the moment! Saw one in his toy box and screamed and sobbed.

My DS is doing the same thing but is only 13 months old. He's usually fiercely independent but is going through a real clingy stage too!]]> Mon, 16 Aug 2010 12:28:04 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35204&PID=1127390&title=do-they-go-through-a-clingy-phase-again#1127390 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35204&PID=1126583&title=do-they-go-through-a-clingy-phase-again#1126583 Author: mummytobesep08

My toddler is doing that too- big time!

She never really went through this stage before she was one (like they usually do) so it's a bit new for us. She wants me over everyone else (even her Dad!) which is nice and all but gets quite exhausting too.

She also does it when we go somewhere new. I find it takes her about an hour til she's settled and starts playing and being her usual cheeky self again.

To me it def seems like another stage of them realizing that they are a separate person to Mum.

Congrats on baby number 2 by the way ]]> Sun, 15 Aug 2010 10:55:17 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35204&PID=1126583&title=do-they-go-through-a-clingy-phase-again#1126583 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35204&PID=1125998&title=do-they-go-through-a-clingy-phase-again#1125998 Author: Emmecat

Clodagh's started her clingy phase early lol. She also is very gregarious but can be very shy in company (at first) and often asks for a BF when we're out and about...which she rarely does at home. But more and more lately I'm getting 'up up up up' from herwhen we are home so I"ve taken to wearing her in the sling more often. This seems to keep her happy when she's feeling very Mummy-orientated  I'm hoping the phase will pass by the time bubs# 2 is here!]]> Sat, 14 Aug 2010 07:07:02 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35204&PID=1125998&title=do-they-go-through-a-clingy-phase-again#1125998 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35204&PID=1125951&title=do-they-go-through-a-clingy-phase-again#1125951 Author: KiwiL

Ha! Yep - know that feeling! Am hoping it's a quick stage too - will be difficult with #2 comes along. ]]> Fri, 13 Aug 2010 22:02:59 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35204&PID=1125951&title=do-they-go-through-a-clingy-phase-again#1125951 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35204&PID=1125269&title=do-they-go-through-a-clingy-phase-again#1125269 Author: mrsm

Chloe is doing the same - even when people she knows come over. She almost climbs up me in an effort to get away. DH says I should be happy as it means she feels secure with me, but she is 12kg and I'm 22wk pg. Definitely hoping it's a stage.]]> Fri, 13 Aug 2010 09:54:57 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35204&PID=1125269&title=do-they-go-through-a-clingy-phase-again#1125269 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35204&PID=1124201&title=do-they-go-through-a-clingy-phase-again#1124201 Author: whitewave

Campbell is doing the same thing! I'm not sure if its another clingy phase, or related to the teething that he's currently going through (popping 4 eye teeth all at once!). Sometimes even at home, he rushes over and hugs my leg like he was worried I was gone!]]> Wed, 11 Aug 2010 22:03:54 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35204&PID=1124201&title=do-they-go-through-a-clingy-phase-again#1124201 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35204&PID=1124132&title=do-they-go-through-a-clingy-phase-again#1124132 Author: KiwiL

During toddlerhood, I mean?

JJ has started being very shy and clingy, mostly when people come to our house. He used to have no issues with new people but now he will come to me and cry hard while people are here. He'll bury himself in my neck or lap until people leave.

When we're out, if anyone tries to talk to him or me put him down he cries to be picked up.

His personality is enormous when it's just us, anything new and he is very sooky la-la!

I am guessing it is just a phase as they become more aware at this age. Have others gone through this?]]> Wed, 11 Aug 2010 20:55:27 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35204&PID=1124132&title=do-they-go-through-a-clingy-phase-again#1124132
