my 5 1/2 month old dd has recently started crying hysterically when held by anyone except me or dh, including my mum who is going to look after her when i go back to work next week. she is generally fine with others (laughs / smiles) if i'm holding her when she meets them or if i'm at least in her sight. i'm not exactly sure if it is separation anxiety as she doesn't really fuss that much at home if i leave her for a few minutes as you would expect if it was separation anxiety. it seems to be an issue just with other people. it's going to make life extremely difficult if she reacts hysterically to being left with my mum next week. is this something that she will get over when she settles into the routine of going to mum's house for a few days? has anyone else ever gone thru this before?
