"Why does baby only calm down with mom?" 🤔💛 If you've ever felt like your baby has a "favorite parent," you're not alone. Babies don't choose favorites based on love. They choose the person who feels most familiar, predictable, and safe in that moment. Often, that's the parent who spends the most time responding to their needs, understands their cues, and has become their strongest source of comfort. This preference can change with age, developmental stages, sleep regressions, teething, illness, or even simple changes in routine. And for the parent who gets pushed away sometimes please remember, your baby isn't rejecting you. They're simply seeking comfort in the way they know best right now. A secure attachment with one caregiver doesn't take away from the bond with the other. In fact, babies thrive when they have loving, responsive relationships with multiple caregivers. ❤️ Did your little one go through a "mom only" or "dad only" phase?
