All children are afraid of separating from their mother, since son and mother maintain a very special bond, it is as if your baby feels that you are one. Sometimes it has happened to us that we move away a few seconds from our baby and he begins to cry in dismay. In short, our baby does not accept separation and lives a state of drama.
We must help our baby to master and eliminate this anxiety caused by the mother's estrangement. Teach him that you are different from him and that he must accept the fact of separating as something specific and of limited time. Offering a toy is quite suitable for him to focus his attention on it and get distracted.
It is convenient to play often with your baby, invent new games because thanks to the fact of sharing, the baby overcomes your momentary separation and helps you acquire autonomy. Trying to try to make the daily separations between mother and child sweeter is a task that depends on age. When your age is between 0 and 12 months, the relationship you have with your little one, is based on looks, caresses and olfactory sensations, together with the communication that represents the voice. It is very important that you continually tell the baby things, even if it is very small and does not understand anything, tell a story or sing a song, since the most important thing is not the words but the tone of voice. It is a way for your child to learn to differentiate your voice in any circumstance and thus keep your presence alive even when you are not by his side.
From 12-14 months the word is complemented by the game and acquires a symbolic value. Introduce the first toys in a progressive way because in this way your child learns that they are not only for fun, but also for expressing and mastering their emotions, including those related to separation.
Often they do not want to go to the nursery so as not to separate from the mother, it is very advisable to leave some personal object of yours that the child relates to you, for example, a handkerchief. In this way he can comfort himself and will not feel the emptiness of your absence. You are everything to him.
