goes on and off for a while i think. We found Ella got really clingy whenever she started a new developmental stage (i.e. crawling and walking). Each time it lasted between a couple of weeks to a month and then went back to her social self. ------------- Mum to Ella (5) and Tom (2) |

Thanks for that reply Mum2Ella - that explains Jack being clingy - he's just started crawling.
But hopefully Jasmine it doesn't last forever, it gets annoying eh?

I think it is when they start to get a little bit more independant and then it gets a bit scary for them because they realise that they can leave you and that you are, an independant person from them. ------------- Mum to Ella (5) and Tom (2) |

| Yeah Jack's been dropping his lip and then starting to scream when I leave him at daycare now. Oh its all fun learning what new strange things our kiddies are going through (or will go through soon) |
