Hi my baby is In her 5th mth now, during the first 2 mths. I was the one who changed her diapers and comfort her to sleep every night. In the 3rd mth, I had to return to work (working hours morning till night) so I left her to the maid to put her to sleep.
Ever since then, the baby rejects me when I carry her at night. She cries so excessively and aggressively whenevrni carry her. I don't understand why. When I pass her to the maid, she is ok again. Is this normal? I heard of newborn baby rejecting mum at birth. But is it common / normal for her to reject me at her 3rd mth after I have been there during the 1st 2mths? She is now going 5mths and she is still like this when I carry her. I really don't know what to do.
I seen a doctor and he says it's colic.
How long does colic lasts? And it's indeed colic, then would it be right to say that even if the mAid carries she would cry. However that is not the case.
I tried all methods to comfort her even adopting what the maid does at night but it doesn't work. The problem is my baby only starts her crying when I carry her and only during the night. During the day if I carry her it's fine. Everything changes at night.

Some friends advise me to see a medium etc. I don't know if I should...
I really don't know what I should do....
 


It's normal. Babies start to identify their caregivers from the 2nd month. My 3mth old son cries when my mother carries him but she was carrying from birth till 6 weeks. At night, the baby might just prefer whoever he is more familiar with. Don't worry. They will recognise you as their mummy when they grow older.

For now, just let the baby have their way so at least they won't be too upset and cry so much
 
I think this is normal. I am also facing the same thing, after i go back to work. I live with it, and i cannot concentrate having to take care in the night and still be able to work in the day. I would then spend time to play with her when i am back from work or on weekends to build that relationship.
 
everything will be fine. At least ur bb is wif u. my gal is wif babysitter. Im weekend mummy. I think im worst than u. But now, she's oledi 1 1/2 yrs, things really getting better and better.
it will pass. bear wif it. endure ba!
 
which country is ur maid from?
My DS's classmate mummy told me this was wat happen to her too. the maid used some black magic on the bb to reject mummy, only want the maid.
Luckily they found out, break spell and send her back.
