My son is 2 and goes through phases like this. There can be many things causing this. I agree with amberwave. First thing first...I know you want to "unwind" but sit on the floor and spend that quality time with your daughter. Hold and cuddle with her. Play dolls, or draw or color with her. She wants you - she needs you. Let her know that you love her and missed her, too. I don't know how old your baby is, but I'm taking for granted that she may be about the same age as my son. Have her help make dinner. Let her take a shower with you...or atleast come into the bathroom. There are days when I want to pull my hair out b/c my son is fussy. If there is a husband/wife, family member, or a friend that can care for her for just a little bit so you can take a breath and calm down it would be great. Just the other day no matter what it was, it wasn't right for my son. His Paw-Paw took him outside saying, "Let's go for a walk." and my son kept screaming for me. After a few minutes, they came back in and my son was happy - as if nothing were ever wrong. It really all sounds to me as if she just wants you...and it would do great justice if you spent as much time with her has possible...before she doesn't want to spend that time with you. And she maybe just really tired. That holding and cuddling can help with that part, too. If you are really concerned that something may be really wrong, check with her doctor. They may just have the answers you are looking for.

I don't know the age of your child, but it sounds very familiar. My son is know 13 months and similar behavior started about 3 or 4 months ago. I do not have a "spoiled" child and I do not carry him around all day, but some days you wouldn't know it. From my experience, it is the beginning of an emotional bond and the little thing called separation. He stills does this sometimes when he is tired or not feeling well, but now that he is getting better at walking and palying more independently, it has decreased from an everyday thing to a twice a week thing or so. Hope this helps.

its because she dosent see you all day so when you finally come home shes scared that your going to go away again its seperation anxiety and im not saying that its a bad thing that you work well done ,but whenever you come home spend at least an hour together reading a book or playing with her favorite toys let her know that you love her and give her your undivided attention for that time even if your tired and dont feel like it she will soon grow out of it and youll feel less stressed

You just need to be firm with her (my daughter does this constant wining thing too). Straight to time out as soon as she starts. Tell her she can come out once she stops crying.
I’m convinced that if I would just follow through on that that she would stop crying, but it breaks my heart because after being at work all day, I just wanna play with her and have some cuddles.

Your Daughter is doing that because she thinks that one of these days when you leave, you won't ever come back. That's Why she's ALWAYS at your side. If she's old enuf to understand, try talking to her & if she isn't, try buying her a small gift for before you leave for work. Or even call her on your break to reassure her that you'll be back home. Also, KEEP reminding her how much you love her & that she WILL see you when you get back home from work. Just keep reassureing her.

She wants to be with you and thinks that they only way to get and keep your attention is to cry.
Try and take some time off of work and just spend with her.

If this happens on a regular basis it's time to change your routine. Try giving her a good loonnnggg cuddle when you get home. Don't worry about getting dinner ready right away, just give her that special mommy time. It might make a difference.

She would sense that she is being replaced through the children. giving her more than a number of interest and reassuring that you want her will be functional. shall we face it , you've your palms finished! If Daddy can take over the twins and also you grants her interest, One on One Say for an Hour an afternoon. She would sense particular! some thing of the day she will be able to be moms huge Helper! purely love all of them and do the perfect you could as you've a large pastime previous to you! even as the twins are a touch older she will be able to work out what exciting they're!

Sounds to me like you have a tired little girl on your hands or maybe something is going on at daycare that is making her clingy to you at night. Is someone being mean to her? Is she getting a proper nap, something is going on and you really need to get to the bottom of it.

Seriously, she's either spoiled or shes sick or something.
