Is this normal? 😔

My baby is the same. He’s just an introvert in larger group settings, it’s totally normal, just taking it in and prefers smaller groups. Try not to worry they’re all so different x

I would say totally normal, my little boy (10.5months) babbles away at home, hitting all milestones, but in baby classes, although not clingy, does want to be near me for the majority of the class, after a while he warms up and crawls off a bit. Again if we are out and there is a loud noise, sudden dog bark he really cries (not really much of a crier the rest of the time) I put it down to our house is just me and him most the day, dad in the evenings, no pets so he’s not used to much noise, I’m sure once he’s at nursery and noise becomes his norm he will be fine, someone once said to me a baby being in a slightly unfamiliar environment is like us being dropped in a foreign country with no warning, no awareness where we are, no ability to communicate, some adults will take it all in their stride and see it as an adventure and others will look and stay with what’s familiar, it doesn’t mean neurodiversity just the type of people we all are
