Yeah same with my LO as well. I guess they are not used to the faces but they warm up after a while
I think my 7 month old is starting this, it's any time she thinks i might pass her to someone else and if i leave her with my dad for example she's fine but when she sees me gets all upset and reaches for me 😅🙈
My child was like this too and still hesitant around some people and observant but not crying like before. Toddler now.
My son went through this stage! Can’t remember how old he was (he’s 3.5 now) but he was probably around 8-10 months old. It’s definitely a phase if your LO is around a similar age x
