Scared of normal things?

MJ has started the strangest habbit. Everynight she sleeps with us, in our bed. But i noticed last night when trying to get her to sleep, everytime i tried to put the doona on her, she screamed as if she was scared. While i was cuddling her

Nothing odd has happened to make her get like this.

Of a night, if she's asleep i can normally chuck it over her & she doesnt stir, she ends up kicking them off cause she gets warm, but this wasnt frustration, this was fear.

She has also started to be scared of noisy toys, like this tiny frog, and her ball that plays music & rolls around the floor.

Has anyone elses bub developed a weird fear of something completely normal?

O is scared of change tables and cooked prawns at the moment. I really wish he'd get over it as it makes it a nightmare to change him while we are shopping.

It's apparently completely normal RB. At least I hope it is.

Oh good, thanks for making me once again feel normal

She is a bit of a freak though, she will play with rubber snakes & spiders, but put a fluffy bunny in front of her & she screams

Maybe the evil fluffy bunny & the capsicum are working together to take over the world

EJ for a while had a fear of a cow drawing in a book - shed be flipping over the pages and shed get to the cow pic and touch it nose saying her noise for what - i'd say cow - shed sorta get upset - look away - look again get upset etc....

I still don't know what was so bad about the cow - it only lasted a few days though lol Every time she got to the cow pic shed get upset ( Scary Cow )

Love the capsicum though

That doesn't sound too bad at all, actually. I think I'd prefer veggies and fluffy bunnies to George Bush.

Anyone else reminded of that Goodies epidose featuring Big Bunny?

Well Boof used to be really scared of any toy that made a noise so its pretty normal i would think hun, she will get better soon im sure !
Boof has now become scared of water which means he now screams if he is too close to the bathroom when i run his bath & refuses to sit down in it. He screams like im stripping his skin off !!!!
He has also become scared of plants which is weird because he loved watering the plants, even has his own watering can. If any of his toys roll away & go near a plant he nearly hyperventilates !!!!
You should see how horrified he is about there being a Christmas tree in the lounge room
