My husband is not coping well...

My LG is 15 months old and we have an amazing bond which I love. Unfortunately it means that my husband has to struggle with it. If he even puts his arm around me she moans and pushed him off. When we're out if I get up to go to the loo she goes berserk! Kicking, screaming and having a full of meltdown trying to get to me. My husband feels really embarrassed and useless when this happens. He said he can't deal with it anymore and something needs to change to "break our bond". Its not that he's jealous, I think he feels excluded and unhelpful. He wants to take the load off me sometimes as she is really hard work but doesn't know what to do? Will this last forever? Any tips on what we can try to improve the situation?

More one on one time with daddy. That’s the only way that bond is going to built between them

I have said this to him. She is naturally going to side with me cause of that natural maternal bond, the fact I was with her alone most of the time for her first year and I brraatfeed her. He says "she doesn't need that, don't keep giving it her" when she keeps pulling up my top to feed. It can be hard going I can't lie. She's 15 months and still obsessed with having booby! I don't feel like it's my body, I feel like it's hers!

My son is a total daddy's boy and I'm a stay at home mom full time while he works all week, so I don't think it's just because you are around her a lot. Have you tried switching to bottles? Sounds like she's bonding more because you're breastfeeding her, I would switch to bottles so he can have a chance to bond as well and you can get your body back

@Gabbie yes, I had to try multiple types of bottles, different people and places to feed her and going out but nothing worked! My LG favours women over men generally as well x
