My 15 mo old daughter is starting to show separation anxiety. I can no longer take her to the gym and leave her in their daycare. Ugh! We are getting ready to change daycares (most likely) and I am afraid of what will happen. Luckily, I will be able to introduce her to the new daycare slowly and one of her friends will be there. But I am afraid of what will happen. I have seen the giant tears and inconsolability with new people. What should I do?

Related, but completely different, she has begun waking up around 9:30 screaming. All I have to do is go in there, hold her for a few minutes and she is fine. However, I am afraid if I continue, the few minutes will extend into longer and I will never be able to go out. I know, I should just let her CIO, but it makes me so sad. Maybe it is just a phase?

Thanks,
