Guest guest Posted March 3, 2012 Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 Could be a different faze or maybe he's not feeling well. Is he whiny? I know this can happen with my girls and I start to get frustrated right before they turn up with a fever or something. My kids started getting clingier as they got older. they were much more easy going as babies. Hi, my 2.5 y/o has never been a cuddler. He never went through that baby phase of wanting to be picked up, and often would want down if I tried. This last week however he has gone from wanting 'up' a few times a day, to the last 2 days wanting to be up every second, and even asking to sit on my lap while he eats at the table. Otherwise he is acting like himself. Anyone else experienced this before? Not sure if he is just going through the clingy phase later than usual, or if something is up. (been gf/cf 2 months, & does Floortime here and there but not consistently). Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
