How do i...
encourage Charlie to enjoy his own company? at the moment I can't leave him for a second without him crying and as oh is returning to work after 8weeks off i need to be able to get jobs done around the house but mainly i want Charlie to enjoy his 'play time' - i admit i am way too quick to pick him up when he cries but its sooo hard to leave him upset. Any suggestions girls, i need to sort this? xx

I have a playmat that plays tunes and found if i could settle him with a tune and madly shaking a rattle to get his attention he would stop crying and play happily.
Try and find something he really likes too, my lo loves his door bouncer or jumperoo, so i pop him in, play with him for a while and then pop in and out to get him used to being on his own.
Door bouncers are great if you want to get on with jobs in the kitchen - pop him in just sing him a song from time to time and get on with whatever you need to.
