Baby not being affectionate
Does anyone else’s baby isn’t being affectionate with them? My baby won’t cuddle and doesn’t even like their hands being touched ☹️ she also pushes away after like 2sec and this makes me feel horrible and like she hates me. She is like this with everyone but as her mum it really hurts my feelings as I keep on thinking I have done something wrong

@Rhiannon Thank you hun, such a relief to hear it’s not just my baby 🙈😂 xx
I've just assumed all babies don't like their hands being touched haha. I can't even show my baby how to do anything as he hates it. He will however rest his hands on mine if he's tired. I think its like an instinctive safety thing for them to not let you control their hands?!?
@Lauren 😂 it could possibly be the case, seems like a sensory thing to me and hopefully something she will outgrow. But it’s good to hear other babies are similar

Omg my baby is exactly the same - she has always been quite independent and I've always put it down to that. If I even touch her hands to show her how something works she rips it away from me and can't stand it. I totally get it, it can be really upsetting especially when you see other people with cuddly babies. I've been assured that they will be more affectionate as they get older... But honestly I just think some babies are more independent than others and don't particularly like to be restricted with cuddles etc. x
