Velcro baby (?)

Hi, my 11 wk old is literally attached to me. She cannot be put down and has to be held all day/or needs contact naps. I wondered if anyone was facing the same and had any tips so I can just make a cuppa or run to the loo 😂. Does it get better? Ftm, so any information would be good. X

I would be lost without my carrier! The only way I can get anything done around the house x

@Sinèad I've bought one, but my lo doesn't seemed to like it. Tbh, we have only tried it on twice!

No real advice just sharing the struggle 🤣 My 9 week old is the exact same, will be looking out for tips on this post too🙈 I bought a cheap baby bouncer and just let her cry in that if it’s a quick trip. My little one also hated the carriers , I bought 3 🤦🏼‍♀️ but after a session it was because I had her sat in it wrong. She cried for the first 10 minutes then settles down !

We have a chair that rocks side to side and plays music and I find this really helps on clingy days just to get some jobs done! It also makes him sleepy which helps when putting him down x

Has baby always been like this? If not could be growth spurt/leap so could pass soon. If baby always been like this, as others suggested carrier, try different types such as ring sling, maybe if u have a local sling library can try different ones?
