So whatever you can do to increase the time that her father spends with her should help. In fact, I find that reactions to new babies tend to peak at about 2-4 months after the new baby arrives. She would do that only with people who really play with her paying full attention to her, and who she knows well.You may want to read a about early child development to get more professional opinions than what I am making up from my observations. Get over it. The trick is to distinguish between thoughts or feelings on the one hand, and behavior on the other. If you find some quality alone time with your son, he will show you the affection you crave. If the child is being mean to Mom, then Dad has to step in very firmly that this is NOT the way to treat a parent. Human babies don't "imprint' the way some animals do; she won't reject you for life because she has a more overt bond with her dad now. Are you looking for never-ending fun in this exciting logic-brain app? Teaching tact to a 2 year old is impossible, but we thought we'd try. While I really don't know what to do about this, and I hope it is a passing stage, I got a good suggestion from this advice line a while ago. I still find that after I have to work a weekend, and therefore my husband has a lot more contact with them than usual, they are much more likely to go to him for comfort, etc. Actually, we're all happier now...I don't know how normal this behavior is, but I can assure you that my son (3.5 years old) exhibits the same sort of behavior, but it's directed towards *me. My husband was also very involved in childcare, but also less there than I was (working more hours) so more highly prized. My daughter's behaviour towards her father began to change at around 3-1/2, including hitting and name-calling. It's a time of adjustment for everyone. Been thereHi, I have gone through similar times, especially when my second child was born.

ChristinaI've had a similar experience in that my 1 year-old son seems to favor his dad over me. (I only learned that lesson when I was 38! Been there, done thatI'm no expert on toddlers - my oldest child will be three in January.

The transition at the end of the day can be tough. My baby preferred Daddy mostly and only rarely preferred me and it broke my heart. My one-year-old daughter kisses everyone but me, and this has been happening since she was about your daughter's age. I called one of my girlfriends sobbing wanting to know how come I do all the work (including breastfeeding) and his dad gets all the credit. That's what our kids hear when the parent spends 20 minutes explaining how little Johnny hurt Mommy's feelings. I grew up as the youngest of 7 children and we all had little jobs around the house (although I always felt my brothers got off easier). anonThis is a really really typical reaction of a 2 year old with a new baby. He goes willingly with him on errands etc. Take care of yourself, and good luck.

'', or ''Do you like me?''.

-Hope this helpsI have no advice for you, but I can commiserate, because this happened to me too. also, eye contact while feeding is huge. As parents we always have to meet our kids more than halfway and so long as you do that, rather than detaching or expressing displeasure, your bond with her will establish itself. My husband had two solid weeks of hard work where he barely saw our kids, and now, as if overnight, my son won't have anything to do with him. It was incredibly demoralizing for me to be rejected like that. Both of you should try hard to not feel bad, especially with him able to see it. if she looks away, remove the bottle till she looks back at you. Which means, first off, that you need to be willing to walk away from your screaming child who is busy rejecting his dad for no apparent reason, and explain to your child that you're not going to tolerate this behavior. But mostly I am worried about the future and that it will get a lot worse, as things have changed so much in the last month. Certain sense of humor, that is different with me than with him. just use this time to adore her. JillAlthough it is probably very hurtful, she is probably very secure about you being around, she is not afraid that you will leave and knows that she can turn her back on you becuase you are always there. if you were not around then he will not get all that. Make sure he knows you have a special time with him too.I agree that kids need to know when they are hurting someone's feelings. I thought I must be such an innately horrible mother that she can't even feel attached to me. She adores the baby, and always has, and in many ways doesn't have many of the struggles with her baby brother that I hear other kids experiencing. anonymousWow, I know this is not what you're asking but your husband is the problem here! Hey, I am an adult and I really don't like it when people demand hugs or kisses - I give them when I feel like it. (And you MUST not give in to the idea that you should ''rescue'' your screaming kid, even though you know that if you pick him up, he'll stop crying immediately. It all passed as the baby grew and we could trade off so I could have more one on one time with our 3 yr old. You could also say ''I know you are mad, and you can always say 'I'm mad'! When he is mad that you pick him up from school instead of his dad, you could possibly say ''I know it's fun to spend time with your dad, and you are disappointed it's me with baby. And have your husband ignore it too.
