When does the clingy phase end for babies? My 18 month old Velcro/koala baby is going strong and I’m struggling to handle life while a 24 pound chonk is either attached to me or destroying something in the house when he is not attached 😅🙈

My 3 year old was super clingy to me all weekend. Not the norm anymore and I was low key loving it in spurts, haha

Well my six year old still has her nights ... We have four though and she is by far the clingiest, but for your little one maybe they are just at peak separation anxiety which should start to improve soon!

When they're teenagers lol. Do you have a good carrier? Just do whatever you want to do and let them help. They just want to be in proximity if you - but baby swings are also great

I’m seeing all these comments that i remember getting when i was overwhelmed with 2 kids under 2 while breastfeeding and mid career jump. Moms,
It DOES get better. Babies need our attention to a degree that as kids age, they just don’t. I’ll put it like this, I used to be lucky to get a 30m break at one time… overtime not only do I get more than 30 mins but also way more frequently. It also matters the type of child and type of parent you are… chill kid,
Chill mom is different experience than crying babies and everything from scratch, no screens, type A mom. I was the second.

Any insight on the interview process or how long it takes or any sort of idea to give me on what I could look for that might help me believe I might get an offer?
