Don't go mom, don't forget me, bye mom ... More than one of my generation remember this song that ripped our tears in front of the TV.
If I talk to myself, baby, I would say something like that, because every time I disappear from his field of vision, he bursts into an anguishing cry, and I only go to another room.
Arturo is going through the anguish of the "eighth month." A difficult stage in the life of a baby and also of the mother.
This period is characterized by an anguishing cry every time the mother moves away from the child. The baby begins to realize that the mother is an independent being, with a life of her own. Before he felt that his mother was part of his body and now begins to realize that it is not so, this characteristic corresponds to the permanence of the notion of object in the baby's mind. For me it is also distressing that Arturo claims me all the time, that going to the kitchen becomes a real tragedy with tears included.
You have to have a lot of patience and leave it in a little while just to get used to that I'm not going on a boat like Marco's mother. Many pampering around to feel my closeness.
I have read that there are activities that favor the overcoming of this stage such as: play to appear and disappear, cover with a sabanite and uncover, so that your baby can glimpse the possibility that he leaves but returns and is close to him, that he can leave , but will come back. Also deliver objects that accompany him like a sabanita, a teddy bear to accompany him when mom is not.
This behavior is completely normal, will happen and everything will return to normal.
