Hi Juz
Ashlynne is ok but on & off. She only shows it at unfamiliar places, with strangers & at night when she sleeps, she needs me..
I am crazy la.. i rather enjoy her behavior this way.. haha!! cos i feel so privileged that my baby wants only me, daddy & my mum when she feels insecured N i m there for her.
I did not really wanna train her as i felt she is still so young but i tried to assure her that mummy is here, there is nothing to be afraid of and slowly let her adapt to the new environment n people.

Your baby's fear of being separated from you at night is very real for him, so you'll want to do your best to keep the hours preceding bedtime as nurturing and peaceful (and fun) as possible. In addition:
• Spend some extra cuddle time with your baby before bed by reading, snuggling, and softly singing together.
• If your baby cries for you after you've put him to bed, it's fine to go to him — both to reassure him and to reassure yourself that he's okay. But make your visits "brief and boring," and he'll learn to fall back to sleep without a lot of help from you. Eventually, he'll be able to fall asleep on his own.</font>
This is what i did to Ashlynne when she cries each time in bed.. perhaps you can try it..
