u/Krickette

My baby turned 7 months old today and she's been a little extra needy and clingy the past week or so. I tend to her basically right away. Sometimes she just wants to be held or have me sit near her while she plays, sometimes she needs something more obvious like a diaper or food, but for the most part it's just been needing to touch me lately. I try to make sure she plays independently throughout the day but I am very attentive and I don't want it to be to her detriment.

I am a stay at home mom and she's my first kid so I'm not sure if I'm doing the right things. I feel like I am but am worried I'm going to pass the age where I should let her have some controlled struggles.
