Hi my youngest is like that at the moment too,but he is so close to cutting his first tooth,and he cry`s and screams,wants to be picked up all the time,I try to move him around the house in his activity centre,he likes to sit up in that and play,but he has to be near to me all the time,so hard when you need to go out side to get the washing hung on the clothes line and a dog in the yard,I wish i had eye`s in the back of my head.I think it just a stage all bubs go through,all mine have done it,they just want to be with us i suppose.Gotta love ?m........
