Just separation anxiety. It comes and goes and tends to peak at certain times in their development. All you can do is offer the reassurance they need. They also get very interested in the world around them at that age, which can also mean they're too busy to rest properly.

I'm amazed at your litle E! She's a real firecracker (with the hair to match)! We were the same, poo pooed suggestions to go on BCP. I mean, what for? In my case af didn't come back till A was over 16 months old...

A was always trying to stand up (not quite that well, I should add). He wasn't an early mover or anything, just overly optimistic I think. Your girl is super cute Murph. I need to get round to checking out all the links you ladies have posted. I do like baby pics

Kahlan - that sounds so gorgeous! A likes sleeping as though he's prostrating himself before god, kneeds tucked right up underneath, arms out to the sides and head to the ground.
