Yesterday Kadin was 10 months old. I have been planning his first birthday over the last few weeks. My god.....remember when?
So it appears Kadin has Seperation Anxiety when it comes to his abu. Once Hasan is home Kadin has a real hard time letting him be out of his view. Its sorta frustrating but more heartbreaking. If Hasan leaves to take out the dogs we have to distract Kadin. Kadin cries most when Hasan tries to put him down in his crib. At night if Hasan gives Kadin to me ( by "at night" I mean 2 am or so) Kadin cries hysterically. I can calm him but I think it hurts us to see him seem so scared.
We have looked this up on the ole internet and it says that basically its like Kadin thinks Hasan disappears. He doesn't understand that his abu will come back when he leaves. Sort of a result of Hasan not always being here the way mommy is. Abu isn't here during the day so Kadin thinks that when he can't see him or when Hasan goes from view that he has disappeared. Strange eh? But I'm sure like everything else we will figure out a way to deal.
My god in two months my baby will be one year old. *sob* It goes by SO fast. Exactly like everyone told me it would. Probably the only accurate piece of advice I got before having him. hehe
