Maybe his voice calms her. Poor kid, hope she feels better!
Mine used to do the same, and now he’s all about me if he’s sick or has a bump. I used to put it down to the size of his hugs?! Like they wrapped him up more than mine could?! Maybe that’s crazy? Anyway, I reckon it’s a phase...give it a few more months, you’ll be back in the top a lot 😉
I found my kids went through phases on which one of us they preferred (my husband or myself). My guess is it is a phase!
My older kids prefer daddy over me when it comes to situations like that!! They sill come for some cuddles & hugs but usually during the time they are sick they always go to daddy. 😩😩😩
Eden just saw your snaps and added peanut! Good call! No telling about dad during sickness though :(
She loves u girl
Saw your insta story! Just joined!
I think it’s just all about that bass. Lol. Sorry. Maybe it’s that his voice is so much deeper than yours?
Saw your Instagram story also! Sorry, I don’t have experience with this - my son is only 4 mos. You and your husband are so cute and funny!
What if my daughter prefers my husband over me every time he comes home?! 😩 #dadsaresocool
My 9m daughter prefers her dad all the time. 😔 I guess it's because I'm home with her all day and she only gets to see him for an hour before she goes to bed.
Sometimes i feel like my baby doesn’t love me or that she prefers her daddy over me but then it goes away we can’t hear those bad voices in our head because Girl we are her mother and they are father they don’t have that mind set yet they love both equally and remember sometimes especially Girls are sticky to daddy but don’t mean she doesn’t love you or that she prefers him
😫😫😫 I wish my kids would prefer their dad when they’re sick!!! Or just sometimes when they’re awake.

I have no insight here- but my husband is able to put the kids to sleep, with ZERO PUSHBACK, unlike the constant need for me to be rocking/holding/nursing... I agree that it could be the calming deeper voice. I was trying to spy on him through the monitor... I was sure he had to be using magic.
Maybe it’s his love of boy bands? She’s prob just in a phase it’ll pass.

I know it must make you feel a type of away. Honestly females like males. Therefore it is normal for the female child to cling to the father. And vice verse. Male child to cling to the mother. It’s human nature. I have felt this way many times. Especially with my daughter. She will be 4 soon and she cling to my husband. Her dad. I breastfed her for nearly 2 years and once she got a sense of independency she started to be a daddy’s girl. Only want momma when she’s sick and daddy’s not around lol.

Same here! My 10 month old laughs hard and loves to play with his dad. He has gotten a little better with me but seems to only think I’m good for food and sleep. 😩
My daughter had phases! One month she's a total mommy's girl and the next she's a complete daddys girl! She still has random days where she prefers one or the other and she's almost 3 now!
It’s a girl thing. Even tho I stayed home with my daughter all day every day for the first three months she loved when dad came home and would laugh and smile meow she screams and runs to him
It’s a thing with girls. My two year old loves daddy. But my little ten month old really has no preference. She wants to be held by everyone. She makes the rounds by leaning out of our arms towards someone else, then on to the next lol! My two year old right now just wants whoever has been there. She sees her grandparents every day. So when they were out of town and she was hollering for people in the middle of the night, their names were absent from the roll call. But when they came back you heard them again. I guess what I’m saying is I think babies are all about the people who are frequently present, but aren’t necessarily a constant. Like SAHMs with the working fathers. If baby is home with mommy constantly and they see daddy for three hours a day (like at my house) it makes daddy more of an exciting event. Kind of like dogs and the mail man 😅 But I do also think there’s a thing with girls and their daddies
Bwhahahaha right!
