Just wanted to sympathise and offer my experience. My DS is extraordinarily clingy at the moment- we can't walk out of the room without him screaming. Its exhausting!

He is in FDC one day a week. He only started about 5 weeks ago, so its still new. The first time I spent a lot of time there with him. Then I just gradually started leaving him for longer and longer. He still is upset when I leave, but then is happy enough. Actually, my FDC lady says that while he's there, he's very clingy with HER- won't let her leave his sight etc, like he does with us. So obviously he's comfortable with her! I guess what I am saying from that is it is possible for your LO to be happy in daycare, as long as you introduce them nice and slow and they bond with someone.

I wish you the very best of luck. I know how absolutely heartbreaking it is to hear your LO is upset, and how exhausting it is too- I feel, particularly at the moment- that DH and I just CAN'T go out on a date night or anything because DS just isn't happy with any sitter. Sigh!
