Favouring the other parent
Does anyone else’s child favour the other parent? My little girl has always been a daddy’s girl but it’s really starting to get me down. She never, ever wants me unless it’s for food (because I do the cooking in the household). She never wants to cuddle me, if I kiss her she wipes away my kisses. If I do anything with her she wants daddy or wants to know where he is. If it comes to getting her shoes on she wants daddy to do it. We ttc for a baby for 5 years , she’s my longed for miracle and to feel so unwanted by her breaks my heart. I cry so much over it. Partner doesn’t ever know what to say about the situation. We have a 6 week old and my partner says she prefers me over him but that’s not the case I guess he’s trying to make me feel better about the situation. Any advice ? 😒

My daughter has started wiping away kisses it kills me 😩😂 maybe it’s an age thing? She’s always been a mummy’s girl but she’s now starting to want other people like her dad and I can’t say the pangs of jealousy don’t hurt cos they do! Sometimes I feel like just her maid she doesn’t want me for the fun stuff! I’m hoping it’s a phase and I get her back soon 😂 Keep strong you know she loves you deep down 🤍

Aww bless you! She’s like it with pretty much everything, I’m going to try a bit of 1 on 1 time, just a bit difficult at the moment because my youngest is only 6 weeks and breastfed and she’s quite demanding. But this has been going on since before she was even born, just don’t thing having a new sibling has helped x
