    I have just had spine surgery and can do nothing bar lie on couch most of the day. My partner is off work looking after me and our 1 year old son. But my son just cries and clings to his daddy all day. He only seems happy when taken out of the house. I know it must be strange for him but he is wearing us both out with constant crying and clinginess. He is teething too but was never this bad when I was looking after him. Anyone any advice!

    It could just be the chamge in routine, my daughyer wa slike this woth my partner as i talk to her all day telling what we'll be doing next, to the point where now she tells me whats next! Could your partner try keeping the 1 yr old informed. maybe he's been warned now to be rough, that he could hurt mammy.

    He is not telling him to stay away from me , I just think because everything is bit different and wondering why mammy just lays on couch all day!

    My 2 year old daughter was like that earlier this year. My husband broke his back 4 weeks before I had baby no. 2.

    Whereas beforehand he was always playing with her, taking her out into the garden, he couldn't do any of that.
    As I was heavily pregnant I wasn't much use at it either.

    There was a very tough few weeks where she was constantly upset & out of sorts, but she did eventually adapt & things went back to normal.

    I can't really help much but just wanted to let you know it does get easier. It knocks them out of their routine when things change like this & they probably getting a bit frightened or insecure at the change, hence the clinginess.

    I hope you recover well from the op & in the mean time your little one's form improves.
